This Day's Thought

What else are the laws of God written in our hearts but the very presence of the Holy Ghost?

Augustine


This Day's Verse

Do not worry about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.

Philippians 4:6
The New Revised Standard Version


This Day's Smile

Some persons’ lives are too much like my friend’s house. When he recently painted it himself, he found that others who had painted it before had neglected all the points which were out of sight of the ground. Many people have used their religion only to “touch up the high points” of their lives. Business, race relations, prejudices have gone sadly untouched by the brush.

This Day's Thought

Read the Bible, not as a newspaper, but as a home letter. If a cluster of heavenly fruit hangs within reach, gather it. If a promise lies upon the page as a blank check, cash it. If a prayer is recorded, appropriate it, and launch it as a feathered arrow from the bow of your desire. If an example of holiness gleams before you, ask God to do as much for you. If the truth is revealed in all its intrinsic splendor, entreat that its brilliance may ever irradiate the hemisphere of your life.

F. B. Meyer


This Day's Verse

The hope of the righteous shall be gladness: but the expectation of the wicked shall perish.

Proverbs 10:28
The King James Version


This Day's Reprise

As we begin to see the package God is putting together in our lives and discover his purposes for bringing us to our world, it will provide us with the framework we need to make wise choices. In addition, we will find that a sense of purpose gives hope in the midst of tragedy and difficulty, gives meaning to the mundane aspects of our lives, and helps us to make our lives count for God.

This Day's Thought

As we practice the work of forgiveness we discover more and more that forgiveness and healing are one.

Agnes Sanford


This Day's Verse

“When you have eaten and are satisfied, you shall bless the LORD your God for the good land which He has given you.”

Deuteronomy 8:10
The New American Standard Bible


This Day's Smile

Grant me, O Lord, the royalty of inward happiness and the serenity which comes from living close to Thee. Daily renew in me the sense of joy, fill every corner of my heart with light and life that I may be a diffuser of life and meet all ills and troubles with gallant high-hearted happiness, giving Thee thanks always for all things. Amen.

This Day’s Thought-Tuesday


This Day's Thought

The soul which loves God for His own sake gladly escapes from the business of the world to think of Him, recollects Him in little chinks and intervals of time, takes occasion of all things to think of Him, and is glad of the hours of prayer to be with Him.

Edward B. Pusey


This Day's Verse

Flee the evil desires of youth and pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace, along with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

2 Timothy 2:22
The New International Version


This Day's Reprise

God never built a Christian strong enough to carry today’s duties and tomorrow’s anxieties piled on top of them.

This Day's Thought

The Spirit’s control will replace sin’s control. His power is greater than the power of all your sin.

Oh, that men would give thanks to the Lord for His goodness, And for His wonderful works to the children of men! For He satisfies the longing soul, And fills the hungry soul with goodness.

This Day's Thought

Lift up your heart to Him, sometimes even at your meals, and when you are in company; the least little remembrance will always be acceptable to Him. You need not cry very loud; he is nearer to us than we are aware of.

Brother Lawrence

The way of the LORD is a refuge for the righteous,

Proverbs 10:29

This Day’s Thought-Thursday


This Day's Thought

What happens when God grants the gift of genuine Christian fellowship? Deep, joyful sharing replaces the polite prattle typically exchanged by Christians on Sunday morning. Sisters and brothers begin to discuss the things that really matter to them. They disclose their inner fears, their areas of peculiar temptation, their deepest joys.

Ronald J. Sider


This Day's Verse

Glory and honor are in his presence; strength and gladness are in his place.

1 Chronicles 16:27
The King James Version


This Day's Reprise

It is no advantage to be near the light if the eyes are closed.

Augustine

This Day’s Thought-Tuesday


This Day's Thought

The titles of God are virtually promises, when He is called a sun, a shield, a strong tower, a hiding place, a portion. The titles of Christ: light of the world, bread of life, the way, the truth, and life; the titles of the Spirit: the Spirit of truth, of holiness, of glory, of grace, of supplication, the sealing, witnessing Spirit—faith may conclude as much out of these as out of promises.

David Clarkson


This Day's Verse

Now a man came up to Jesus and asked, “Teacher, what good thing must I do to get eternal life?” “Why do you ask me about what is good?” Jesus replied. “There is only One who is good. If you want to enter life, obey the commandments.”

Matthew 19:16-17
The New International Version


This Day's Reprise

Saints are men who permit God’s forgiveness to come into them so fully that not only are their sins washed out, but also their very selves, their egos, and the root of their self will. And again we see, the intensity of their power really to forgive is in exact proportion to the degree that they have permitted themselves to be forgiven and so brought back to God.

This Day's Thought

How shall I depend on Him for raising my body from the dust; and saving my soul at last; if I distrust Him for a crust of bread, towards my preservation.

Joseph Hall


This Day's Verse

The heart of the righteous studies how to answer, But the mouth of the wicked pours forth evil.

Proverbs 15:28
The New King James Version


This Day's Smile

The person who has a firm trust in the Supreme Being is powerful in his power, wise by his wisdom, happy by his happiness.

Joseph Addison
