Devotional – January 8, 2011

VERSE:
Genesis 44:23–Now therefore please let your servant remain instead of the lad, a slave to my lord, and let the lad go up with his brothers.

TRUTH:
Judah had made a promise to their father and now he was being tested to see if he would be willing to go through with it. Are we people of our word? Do we follow through on the promises we make?

RESPONSE:
Lord, help me to be a person of integrity, even when it is difficult and hard.
