Dear Friends,
Be sure to read the Scripture for today’s devotional. Sophie Scholl was a German Lutheran who courageously publicly opposed Hitler. She was arrested and executed by beheading with a guillotine at age 21. She is worth listening to. God bless you.

Because of Calvary,
John Janney

• Amos 4:12 (ESV)

  “Therefore thus I will do to you, O Israel;
  because I will do this to you,
  prepare to meet your God, O Israel!”

“People believe that we live in the end times, and many terrible signs make such a belief all too credible. But isn’t it irrelevant? Don’t we realize that, no matter when we live, God can call us at a moment’s notice? How do I know if I’ll even be alive tomorrow morning?” [Sophie Scholl, letter (1941) in Plough Reader, (Spring 2000), p. 17]
