This Day's Thought

Do not gossip about your neighbors, even though what you say is the truth.

Moses Maimonides

This Day's Verse

But you must return to your God; maintain love and justice, and wait for your God always.

Hosea 12:6
The New International Version

This Day's Smile

A perfectly healthy retired merchant was constantly coming to my office to inquire about his heart. One day I put my arm around his shoulder and said, You need not worry. Your heart will last as long as you live. He left my office in high spirits.

This Day's Thought

Society seems to attach far more importance to its public school teachers than to those who teach the Bible and spiritual living. It gives the public school teacher four years of training in a teachers’ college, allows him five hours a day, five days a week, to get your child ready for life. It gives the Sunday School class to anyone who will take it, and allows him forty-five minutes a week to get the child ready for eternity!

Ross L. Holman

This Day's Verse

Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, Rejoice.

Philippians 4:4
The New Revised Standard Version

This Day's Reprise

We do not exist for ourselves.

My secret is very simple: I pray. Through prayer I become one in love with Christ. I realize that praying to him is loving him.

Mother Teresa

This Day's Verse

Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing.

1 Thessalonians 5:11
The English Standard Version

This Day's Smile

Every Christian should be both conservative and radical; conservative in preserving the faith and radical in applying it.

This Day's Thought

What is Christianity? In the home, it is kindness; in business, it is honesty; in society, it is courtesy; in work, it is thoroughness; in play, it is fairness; toward the fortunate, it is congratulation; toward the unfortunate, it is pity; toward the weak, it is help; toward the wicked, it is resistance; toward the strong, it is trust; toward the penitent, it is forgiveness; and toward God, it is reverence and love.

Douglas Hyde

This Day's Verse

Be glad in the LORD and rejoice, you righteous; And shout for joy, all you upright in heart!

Psalm 32:11
The New King James Version

This Day's Reprise

God has charged Himself with full responsibility for our eternal happiness and stands ready to take over the management of our lives the moment we turn in faith to Him.

Many live in dread of what is coming. Why should we? The unknown puts adventure into life. It gives us something to sharpen our souls on. The unexpected around the corner gives a sense of anticipation and surprise. Thank God for the unknown future.

E. Stanley Jones

This Day's Thought

Be on the lookout for mercies. The more we look for them, the more of them we will see. Blessings brighten when we count them. Out of the determination of the heart the eyes see. If you want to be gloomy, there’s gloom enough to keep you glum; if you want to be happy, there’s gleam enough to keep you glad. Better to lose count while naming your blessings than to lose your blessings by counting your troubles.

Maltbie D. Babcock

This Day's Verse

“‘And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’”

Mark 12:30
The English Standard Version

This Day's Reprise

God is ready to assume full responsibility for the life wholly yielded to Him.

This Day's Thought

It is important that when we come to die we have nothing to do but to die.

Charles Hodge

This Day's Verse

From the LORD comes deliverance. May your blessing be on your people.

Psalm 3:8
The New International Version

This Day's Smile

When John Wesley was first converted he retired from the world to study. One day an old man said to him: “Sir, if you wish to serve God, you can’t serve Him alone. You must find companions or make them. The Bible knows nothing of solitary religion.” From that day, John Wesley’s fellowship warmed all England.

This Day's Thought

I love poverty because He loved it. I love riches because they afford me the means of helping the very poor. I keep faith with everybody; I do not render evil to those who wrong me, but I wish them a situation like mine, in which I receive neither good nor evil from men. I try to be just, true, sincere, and faithful to all men; I have a tender heart for those to whom God has more closely united me; and whether I am alone, or seen by people, I do all my actions in the sight of God, who must judge them, and to whom I have consecrated them all. These are my sentiments; and every day of my life, I bless my Redeemer, who has implanted them in me, and who, out of a man full of weakness, of miseries, of lust, of pride, and of ambition, has made a man free from all these evils by the power of His grace, to which all the glory of it is due, as of myself I have only misery and error.

Blaise Pascal

This Day's Verse

The spirit of a man is the lamp of the LORD, Searching all the inner depths of his heart.

Proverbs 20:27
The New King James Version

This Day's Reprise

A healthy family is sacred territory.
