None but a theology that came out of eternity can carry you and me safely to and through eternity.

Theodore Ledyard Cuyler


This Day's Verse

Behold, how good and how pleasant it is For brethren to dwell together in unity!

Psalm 133:1

This Day's Smile

What time is it?
Time to do well,
Time to live better,
Give up that grudge,
Answer that letter,
Speak the kind word to sweeten a sorrow,
Do that kind deed you would leave ‘till tomorrow.

This Day's Thought

As to all that we have and are, we are but stewards of the Most High God. On all our possessions, on our time, and talents, and influence, and property, he has written, “Occupy for me, and till I shall come.” To obey his instructions and serve him faithfully, is the true test of obedience and discipleship.

Charles Simmons


This Day's Verse

But avoid worldly and empty chatter, for it will lead to further ungodliness,

2 Timothy 2:16
The New American Standard Bible


This Day's Smile

Temperance is to the body what religion is to the soul—the foundation of health, strength and peace.

This Day's Thought

What do we mean by “success” anyway? Success by whose standards? The Bible teaches that God is the final Judge before whom we shall all stand one day. God will then proclaim us successful or unsuccessful.

Bill Krisher

People who conceal their sins will not prosper, but if they confess and turn from them, they will receive mercy.

The New Living Translation


This Day's Reprise

This Day's Thought

So long as we are full of self we are shocked at the faults of others. Let us think often of our own sin, and we shall be lenient to the sins of others.

François de Fénelon


This Day's Verse

“Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.”

Matthew 17:20
The New International Version


This Day's Smile

Not until each loom is silent
And the shuttles cease to fly,
Will God unroll the pattern
And explain the reason why
The dark threads are as needful
In the Weaver’s skillful hand
As the threads of gold and silver
For the pattern which He planned.

This Day's Thought

God had given me this lesson that I could still be imperfect and be loved. That’s how God loves us. We humans are terrible at loving one another. We’re terrible at keeping peace. We’re terrible at running the world and using our free will but for some reason God loves us all anyway.

Monica Clare


This Day's Verse

“But let justice roll on like a river, righteousness like a never-failing stream!”

Amos 5:24
The New International Version


This Day's Reprise

Let your old age be childlike, and your childhood like old age; that is, so that neither may your wisdom be with pride, nor your humility without wisdom.

Augustine

This Day's Thought

Whoever is spared personal pain must feel himself called to help in diminishing the pain of others. We must all carry our share of the misery which lies upon the world.

Albert Schweitzer

Oh give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; for his steadfast love endures forever!

Psalm 118:29
The English Standard Version

This Day's Thought

Temptation succeeds best in corrupting the over-zealous Christian or the underachieving Christian. It has far less success with the Christian who maintains a simple, practical, and even-tempered faith.

Harvey F. Egan


This Day's Verse

Hatred stirs up strife, But love covers all sins.

Proverbs 10:12
The New King James Version


This Day's Smile

Each of us is a mixture of dust and deity.

There is no hiding place from that which the hand of God presents to us.

Dolores Hart


This Day's Verse

Let the trees of the forest sing, let them sing for joy before the Lord, for he comes to judge the earth.

1 Chronicles 16:33
The New International Version


This Day's Reprise

The first thing I ask is that people should not make use of my name, and should not call themselves Lutherans but Christians. What is Luther? The teaching is not mine. Nor was I crucified for anyone…How did I, poor stinking bag of maggots that I am, come to the point where people call the children of Christ by my evil name?

Martin Luther

This Day's Verse

Bless the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me, bless his holy name Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits, who forgives all your iniquity, who heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from the pit, who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy, who satisfies you with good so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.

Psalm 103:1-5
The English Standard Version


This Day's Smile

The mother is indeed a gardener of God doing a veritable priestly work in the Christian care of her children.

This Day's Thought

Suffering accepted and vanquished, will give you a serenity which may well prove the most exquisite fruit of your life.

Désiré-Joseph Mercier


This Day's Verse

So then, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath; for the wrath of man does not produce the righteousness of God.

James 1:19-20
The New King James Version


This Day's Reprise

I’d rather see a sermon than hear one any day;
I’d rather one should walk with me than merely show the way.
The eye’s a better pupil and more willing than the ear;
Fine counsel is confusing, but example’s always clear.
And the best of all preachers are the men who live their creeds,
For to see the good in action is what everybody needs.
I can soon learn how to do it if you’ll let me see it done;
I can watch your hands in action, but your tongue too fast may run.
And the lectures you deliver may be very wise and true,
But I’d rather get my lesson by observing what you do.
For I may misunderstand you and the high advice you give,
But there’s no misunderstanding how you act and how you live.
