This Day's Thought

God deserves far more praise than any of us could ever give Him. And God receives little thanks, even for his greatest gifts.

This Day's Verse

 “No one after lighting a lamp puts it in a cellar or under a basket, but on a stand, so that those who enter may see the light. Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eye is healthy, your whole body is full of light, but when it is bad, your body is full of darkness. Therefore be careful lest the light in you be darkness. If then your whole body is full of light, having no part dark, it will be wholly bright, as when a lamp with its rays gives you light.”

Luke 11:33-36
The English Standard Version

This Day's Reprise

I do not seek to understand so that I may believe, but I believe so that I may understand.

Anselm of Canterbury

This Day's Thought

Human beings judge one another by their external actions. God judges them by their moral choices.

C. S. Lewis

This Day's Verse

My child, don’t lose sight of common sense and discernment. Hang on to them, for they will refresh your soul.

Proverbs 3:21
The New Living Translation

This Day's Smile

The atheist who seriously studies religion in order to attack it is closer to the spirit of God than the bovine believer who supports religion because it is comfortable, respectable, and offers consolation without thought.

This Day's Thought

Jesus is moved to happiness every time He sees that you appreciate what He has done for you. Grip His pierced hand and say to Him, “I thank Thee, Savior, because Thou hast died for me.” Thank Him likewise for all the other blessings He has showered upon you from day to day. It brings joy to Jesus.

Ole Hallesby

This Day's Verse

Let your unfailing love surround us, LORD, for our hope is in you alone.

Psalm 33:22
The New Living Translation

This Day's Reprise

There is so much good in the worst of us, and so much bad in the best of us, that it behooves all of us not to talk about the rest of us.

Robert Louis Stevenson

This Day's Thought

We human beings instinctively regard the seen world as the “real” world and the unseen world as the “unreal” world, but the Bible calls for almost the opposite. Through faith, the unseen world increasingly takes shape as the real world and sets the course for how we live in the seen world.

Philip Yancey

This Day's Verse

But it is the spirit in a man, the breath of the Almighty, that gives him understanding.

Job 32:8
The New International Version

This Day's Smile

Every house a temple, every heart an altar, every human being a priest.

This Day's Thought

The greatness of God rouses fear within us, but his goodness encourages us not to be afraid of him. To fear and not be afraid—that is the paradox of faith.

A. W. Tozer

This Day's Verse

Wisdom is with the aged, and understanding in length of days.

Job 12:12
The English Standard Version

This Day's Smile

The man who claims to be a self-made man has relieved God of an embarrassing responsibility. He usually is a horrible example of unskilled labor.

This Day's Thought

I only have one life and one chance to use it for something…I am free to choose what that something is, and that something I have chosen is my faith. Now my faith goes beyond theology and religion and requires considerable work and effort. My faith demands—and this is not optional—that I do all I can, wherever I am, whenever I can, for as long as possible and with whatever I have at my disposal to try to make a difference.

Jimmy Carter

This Day's Verse

The Lord will indeed give what is good, and our land will yield its harvest.

Psalm 85:12
The New International Version

This Day's Reprise

We don’t have to worry about how wise or clever we are—God chose the foolish. We don’t have to worry about how powerful we are—God chose the weak. We don’t have to worry about how popular we are, or even whether we’ll amount to anything much—God chose the despised and the ones who were nothing. None of those human measurements counts when it comes to performing great acts in life—great acts as defined by God, acts of humility, obedience, and love.

This Day's Thought

If thou wouldst find much favor and peace with God and man, be very low in thine own eyes; forgive thyself little, and others much.

Robert Leighton

This Day's Verse

Preach the word of God. Be prepared, whether the time is favorable or not. Patiently correct, rebuke, and encourage your people with good teaching.

2 Timothy 4:2
The New Living Translation

This Day's Smile

Little is much if God is in it.

This Day's Thought

No one can believe how powerful prayer is, and what it is able to effect, except those who have learned it by experience. It is a great matter when in extreme need, to take hold on prayer. I know that whenever I have earnestly prayed, I have been amply heard, and have obtained more than I prayed for. God, indeed, sometimes delayed, but at last He came.

Martin Luther

This Day's Verse

Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.

Revelation 14:12
The King James Version

This Day's Reprise

God has promised forgiveness to your repentance, but He has not promised tomorrow to your procrastination.

Augustine

This Day's Thought

As believers, we need to reaffirm our commitment to moral purity and to private lives that are absolutely free of secret sins.

Charles Swindoll

This Day's Verse

You make known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand.

Psalm 16:11
The New International Version

This Day's Smile

If we are willing to be patient until the grace of God is made manifest, whether it takes nine years or ninety, it will be worth the wait.
