This Day’s Thought-Tuesday

When God intended to reveal any future events or high notions to His prophets, He then carried them either to the deserts or the seashore, that having so separated them from amidst the press of people and business, and the cares of the world, He might settle their mind in a quiet repose, and there make them fit for revelation.

Izaak Walton

You shall walk after the Lord your God and fear him and keep his commandments and obey his voice, and you shall serve him and hold fast to him.

Deuteronomy 13:4
The English Standard Version

Trying to do the Lord’s work in your own strength is the most confusing, exhausting, and tedious of all work. But when you are filled with the Holy Spirit, then the ministry of Jesus just flows out of you.

“Thy will be done!”—What a comfort and support those four little words are to my soul. I have repeated them until they are softened to the sweetest harmony.

Elizabeth Ann Seton

The Lord watches over the sojourners, he upholds the widow and the fatherless; but the way of the wicked he brings to ruin.

Psalm 146:9
The Revised Standard Version

Every morning lean thine arms awhile
Upon the window sill of heaven
And gaze upon thy Lord.
Then, with the vision in thy heart,
Turn strong to meet thy day.

This Day’s Thought-Friday

Put your hand in Jesus’ hand, and walk alone with Him. Walk ahead, because if you look back you will go back.

Drana Bojaxhiu (Mother Teresa’s mother)

My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:

This Day’s Thought-Thursday

This Book is far more than man’s book. It is God’s unchanging Word sent to man, that he may have a chart and compass for his voyage and that he may have a staff upon which to lean in weary hours.

Billy Graham

For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God.

Romans 8:14
The Revised Standard Version

It’s not what you did, but what you could have done if you allowed the Lord to work His will in your life.

This Day’s Thought-Wednesday

Only the loving will have any understanding of love—just as only the good will understand goodness. When one has gotten only a little way into loving, one learns that what understanding we do attain, poor and partial as it must be, is not gotten by thinking about it. It comes by receiving and giving love, as a part of the process of living.

Eileen Guder

But those who won’t care for their relatives, especially those in their own household, have denied the true faith. Such people are worse than unbelievers.

1 Timothy 5:8
The New Living Translation

Lead kindly Light, amid the encircling gloom, lead Thou me on! The night is dark, and I am far from home, lead Thou me on. Keep Thou my feet; I do not ask to see the distant scene, one step enough for me.

John H. Newman

This Day’s Thought-A Note of Thanks

Dear Ministry Members,

As we end this month of November, we want to thank you for allowing us to share our fundraising needs for the ministry. And we now look forward to our next year together as we continue to share our daily Christian “seeds” of encouragement and inspiration.

It has been quite a while since we offered a book containing our favorite Christian thoughts and so this next year we will begin compiling a special collection of such quotations that we will later offer in celebration of our 25th year of ministry. Of the 10,000 or so quotations we will have shared with you over these many years, we anticipate this special collection will include some 2000 of “the very best of the best.” It will take us this next year to edit this volume and we will keep you informed on its progress and completion.

We thank you for your support over all of these past years and additionally thank you in advance for all of your continued prayers and financial investment in our work.

May God bless you all in your continued walks with Him.

And if you would still like to make a financial contribution to this ministry, you may do so at any time by clicking on the link below:

This Day’s Thought-Tuesday

On January 12, 1723, I made a solemn dedication of myself to God, and wrote it down; giving up myself, and all that I had to God; to be for the future, in no respect, my own; to act as one that had no right to be himself, in any respect. And solemnly vowed to take God for my whole portion and felicity; looking on nothing else, as any part of my happiness, nor acting as if it were; and his law for the constant rule of my obedience: engaging to fight against the world, the flesh and the devil, to the end of my life.

Jonathan Edwards

My soul melts from heaviness; Strengthen me according to Your word.

Psalm 119:28
The New King James Version

I have been driven many times to my knees by the overwhelming conviction that I had nowhere else to go.

Abraham Lincoln

Mother Teresa

Through patience a ruler can be persuaded, and a gentle tongue can break a bone.

Proverbs 25:15
The New International Version

The Bible is not special because the language is special; it’s special because the message is special.
