This Day’s Thought-Thursday

This Day's Thought

BEGIN THE DAY WITH GOD. Kneel down to Him in prayer; lift up your heart to Him. And seek His love to share.

OPEN THE BOOK OF GOD. Read a portion there, that it may clarify all your thoughts and sweeten all your care.

GO THROUGH THE DAY WITH GOD. Even though you may not see Him, wherever you are He is near.

CONVERSE IN YOUR MIND WITH GOD. Raise your spirit heavenward; acknowledge every good He provides, and offer grateful praise.

CONCLUDE YOUR DAY WITH GOD. Confess your sins to Him; trust in the Lord’s atoning blood, and plead His righteousness.

Richard DeHaan

This Day's Verse

But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s own people, that you may declare the wonderful deeds of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.

1 Peter 2:9
The Revised Standard Version

This Day's Reprise

There is nothing that can be done with anger that cannot be done better without it.

This Day's Thought

As white snow flakes fall quietly and thickly on a winter day, answers to prayer will settle down upon you at every step you take, even to your dying day. The story of your life will be the story of prayer and answers to prayer.

Ole Hallesby

This Day's Verse

For wrath killeth the foolish man, and envy slayeth the silly one.

Job 5:2
The King James Version

This Day's Reprise

Why should I tremble at the plough of my Lord, that maketh deep furrows on my soul? I know He is no idle husbandman, He purposeth a crop.

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.

This Day's Thought

The ordinary influence of the Spirit of God, working the grace of charity in the heart, is a more excellent blessing than any of the extraordinary gifts.

Jonathan Edwards

This Day's Verse

Do not hasten in your spirit to be angry, For anger rests in the bosom of fools.

Ecclesiastes 7:9
The New King James Version

This Day's Smile

God can do wonders with little noise.
