This Day's Thought

My faith hath no bed to sleep upon but omnipotency.

Samuel Rutherford


This Day's Verse

How can I know all the sins lurking in my heart?  Cleanse me from these hidden faults.

Psalm 19:12
The New Living Translation


This Day's Reprise

Joy is not gush; joy is not jolliness.  Joy is just perfect acquiescence in God’s will because the soul delights itself in God Himself.

This Day's Thought

In natural matters faith follows evidence and is impossible without it, but in the reality of the spirit, faith precedes understanding; it does not follow it.  The natural man must know in order to believe; the spiritual man must believe in order to know.

A. W. Tozer


This Day's Verse

“‘Take heed, be quiet, do not fear, and do not let your heart be faint’”

Isaiah 7:4
The Revised Standard Version


This Day's Smile

Ought we not to be greatly ashamed if we do not store up God’s Word in old age?

This Day’s Thought-Thursday


This Day's Thought

Every day let us renew the consecration to God’s service.  Every day let us, in His strength, pledge ourselves afresh to do His will, even in the veriest trifle, and to turn aside from anything that may displease Him… He does not bid us bear the burdens of tomorrow, next week, or next year.  Every day we are to come to Him in simple obedience and faith, asking help to keep us and aid us through that day’s work.  Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow, through years of long tomorrows, it will be but the same thing to do; leaving the future always in God’s hands, sure that He can care for it better than we.  Blessed trust!  That can thus confidingly say, “This hour is mine with its present duty; the next is God’s, and when it comes, His presence will come with it.”

Unknown


This Day's Verse

For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, that according to the riches of his glory he may grant you to be strengthened with might through his Spirit in the inner man, and that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may have power to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fulness of God.

Ephesians 3:14-19
The Revised Standard Version

Satan, like a fisher, baits his hook according to the appetite of the fish.

This Day's Thought

If you examined one hundred people who had lost their faith in Christianity, I wonder how many of them would turn out to have been reasoned out of it by honest argument?  Do not most people simply drift away?

C. S. Lewis


This Day's Verse

My sons, be not now negligent: for the LORD hath chosen you to stand before him,

2 Chronicles 29:11
The King James Version


This Day's Smile

I do not understand the digestive system, but I eat.  I don’t understand all about our respiratory system, but I continue to breathe.  So it is with faith.

This Day’s Thought-Monday


This Day's Thought

If faith is the gaze of the heart at God, and if this gaze is but the raising of the inward eyes to meet the all-seeing eyes of God, then it follows that it is one of the easiest things possible to do.  It would be like God to make the most vital thing easy and place it within the range of possibility for the weakest and poorest of us.

A. W. Tozer


This Day's Verse

Because Your lovingkindness is better than life, My lips shall praise You.

Psalm 63:3
The New King James Version


This Day's Smile

If thou wouldst preserve a sound body, use fasting and walking; if a healthful soul, fasting and prayer.  Walking exercises the body; praying exercises the soul; fasting cleanses both.

This Day's Thought

Strive to see God in all things without exception, and acquiesce in His will with absolute submission.  Do everything for God, uniting yourself to Him by a mere upward glance, or by the overflowing of your heart towards Him.  Never be in a hurry; do everything quietly and in a calm spirit.  Do not lose your inward peace for anything whatsoever, even if your whole world seems upset.  Commend all to God, and then lie still and be at rest in His bosom.  Whatever happens, abide steadfast in a determination to cling simply to God, trusting to His eternal love for you; and if you find that you have wandered forth from this shelter, recall your heart quietly and simply.  Maintain a holy simplicity of mind, and do not smother yourself with a host of cares, wishes, or longings, under any pretext.

Francis de Sales


This Day's Verse

I will direct all his ways:

Isaiah 45:13
The King James Version

This Day's Thought

Every choice we make lays a brick next to others, forming either a pathway or a wall, depending on our faithfulness to what God has asked of us.

Steve Carter


This Day's Verse

This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.

Psalm 118:24

This Day's Thought

Neither go back in fear and misgiving to the past, nor in anxiety and forecasting to the future. Instead, lie quiet under His hand, having no will but His.

Henry E. Manning


This Day's Verse

And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.

Luke 12:15
The King James Version


This Day's Smile

The light of faith confers upon us undreamed-of enhancement of our vision, an extension of our understanding, an enrichment of our natural powers beyond the powers of words to convey.

This Day's Thought

When therefore the smallest instinct or desire of thy heart calleth thee towards God and a newness of life, give it time and allow it to speak.  Take care thou refuse not Him that speaketh.  Be retired, silent, passive, and humbly attentive to this new risen light within thee.

William Law


This Day's Verse

He said to his disciples, “Why are you so afraid?  Do you still have no faith?”

Mark 4:40
The New International Version


This Day's Reprise

It is no use walking anywhere to preach unless we preach as we walk.
