This Day's Thought

Not only the adoration of images is idolatry, but also trust in one’s own righteousness, works and merits, and putting confidence in riches and power.  As the latter is the commonest, so it also is the most noxious.

Martin Luther

This Day's Verse

“Father, if you are willing, please take this cup of suffering away from me.  Yet I want your will to be done, not mine.”

This Day's Smile

They are idols of hearts and of households;
They are angels of God in disguise;
His sunlight still sleeps in their tresses;
His glory still gleams in their eyes.
Oh those truants from home and from heaven,
They have made me more manly and mild,
And I know now how Jesus could liken
The kingdom of God to a child.

Psalm 40:12-13
The New International Version

In all thy actions think God sees thee; and in all His actions labor to see Him; that will make thee fear Him; this will move thee to love Him; the fear of God is the beginning of knowledge, and the knowledge of God is the perfection of love.

This Day's Thought

A man is known to his dog by the smell, to his tailor by the coat, to his friend by the smile; each of these know him, but how little or how much depends on the dignity of the intelligence.  That which is truly and indeed characteristic of the man is known only to God.

John Ruskin
