This Day’s Thought-Thursday

This Day's Thought

How does our will become sanctified?  By conforming itself unreservedly to that of God.  We will all that He wills, and will nothing that He does not will; we attach our feeble will to that all-powerful will which performs everything.  Thus, nothing can ever come to pass against this will; for nothing can happen save that which God wills, and we find in His good pleasure an inexhaustible source of peace and consolation.

François Fénelon

This Day's Verse

Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might;

Ecclesiastes 9:10
The King James Version

This Day's Reprise

In the name of Jesus Christ who was never in a hurry, we pray, O God, that You will slow us down, for we know that we live too fast.  With all eternity before us, make us take time to live—time to get acquainted with You, time to enjoy Your blessing, and time to know each other.

This Day's Thought

How God rejoices over a soul, which, surrounded on all sides by suffering and misery, does that upon earth which the angels do in heaven—namely, loves, adores, and praises God!

Gerhardt Tersteegen

This Day's Verse

Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice.  And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you.

Ephesians 4:31-32
The New King James Version

This Day's Reprise

Disregard the study of God and you sentence yourself to stumble and blunder through life, blindfolded, as it were, with no sense of direction and no understanding of what surrounds you.

J. I. Packer

This Day's Thought

Guide me, O Lord, in all the changes and varieties of the world; that in all things that shall happen, I may have an evenness and tranquility of spirit; that my soul may be wholly resigned to Thy divine will and pleasure, never murmuring at Thy gentle chastisements and fatherly correction.  Amen.

Jeremy Taylor

This Day's Verse

“But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.”
