This Day's Thought

I wish, my brothers and sisters, that during this year you may live nearer to Christ than you have ever done before. Depend upon it, it is when we think much of Christ that we think little of ourselves, little of our troubles, and little of the doubts and fears that surround us.

A New Year Wish
What shall I wish thee this New Year?
Health, wealth, prosperity, good cheer,
All sunshine—not a cloud or tear?
Nay!  Only this:
That God may lead thee His own way,
That He may choose thy path each day,
That thou mayest feel Him near alway,
For this is bliss!

This Day's Smile

Every contradiction of our will, every little ailment, every petty disappointment, will, if we take it patiently, become a blessing.  So, walking on earth, we may be in heaven.  The ill-tempers of others, the slights and rudeness of the world, ill-health, the daily accidents with which God has mercifully strewed our paths, instead of ruffling or disturbing our peace, may cause His peace to be shed abroad in our hearts abundantly.
