This Day's Thought

If you trusted God with your soul, why would you not trust Him with your worries?

Josh Weidmann

This Day's Verse

Hold fast the pattern of sound words which you have heard from me, in faith and love which are in Christ Jesus.  That good thing which was committed to you, keep by the Holy Spirit who dwells in us.

2 Timothy 1:13-14
The New King James Version

This Day's Smile

Let the weakest, let the humblest remember, that in his daily course he can, if he will, shed around him almost a heaven.  Kindly words, sympathizing attentions, watchfulness against wounding men’s sensitiveness,—these cost very little, but they are priceless in their value.  Are they not almost the staple of our daily happiness?  From hour to hour, from moment to moment, we are supported, blest, by small kindnesses.

This Day’s Thought-Tuesday

This Day's Thought

The crosses which we make for ourselves by a restless anxiety as to the future, are not crosses which come from God.  We show want of faith in Him by our false wisdom, wishing to forestall His arrangements, and struggling to supplement His Providence by our own providence.  The future is not yet ours; perhaps it never will be.  If it comes, it may come wholly different from what we have foreseen.  Let us shut our eyes, then, to that which God hides from us, and keeps in reserve in the treasures of His deep counsels.  Let us worship without seeing; let us be silent; let us abide in peace.

François Fénelon

This Day's Verse

The beloved of the Lord shall dwell in safety by him; and the Lord shall cover him all the day long, and he shall dwell between his shoulders.

Deuteronomy 33:12
The King James Version

This Day's Reprise

If a bird is flying for pleasure, it flies with the wind, but if it meets danger it turns and faces the wind, in order that it may rise higher.

This Day's Thought

In this world we taste but the beginning of Christ’s kingdom.

John Calvin

This Day's Verse

Though you have not seen him, you love him.  Though you do not now see him, you believe in him and rejoice with joy that is inexpressible and filled with glory, obtaining the outcome of your faith, the salvation of your souls.

1 Peter 1:8-9
The English Standard Version

This Day's Smile

Are you a happy Christian or a sad Christian?
Are you a brave Christian or a fearful Christian?
Are you a calm Christian or a worrying Christian?
Are you a content Christian or a dissatisfied Christian?
Are you a peaceful Christian or a troubled Christian?
Are you a witnessing Christian or a silent Christian?
Are you a praying Christian or a lost Christian?

This Day's Thought

Resign every forbidden joy; restrain every wish that is not referred to His will; banish all eager desires, all anxiety.  Desire only the will of God; seek Him alone, and you will find peace.

François Fénelon

This Day's Verse

If you really fulfill the royal law according to the Scripture, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself,” you are doing well.

James 2:8
The English Standard Version

This Day's Smile

Worry is the warning light that God has been shoved to the sideline.

Rick Warren
