This Day's Thought

Real true faith is man’s weakness leaning on God’s strength.

D. L. Moody

This Day's Verse

“For the mountains shall depart And the hills be removed, But My kindness shall not depart from you, Nor shall My covenant of peace be removed,” Says the Lord, who has mercy on you.

Isaiah 54:10
The New King James Version

This Day's Smile

I could not be interested in any man’s religion if his knowledge of God did not bring him more joy, did not brighten his life, did not make him want to carry this joy into every dark corner of the world. I have no understanding of a long-faced Christian. If God is anything, He must be joy.

Glory in his holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the LORD rejoice!

A positive thing; in Joy one does not only feel secure, but something goes out from one’s self to the universe, a warm, possessive effluence of love.

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

Where is the foolish person who would think it in his power to commit more than God could forgive.

Francis de Sales

This Day's Verse

“Oh, that we might know the Lord!  Let us press on to know him.  He will respond to us as surely as the arrival of dawn or the coming of rains in early spring.”

Hosea 6:3
The New Living Translation

This Day's Smile

It is rare when injustice, or slights patiently borne, do not leave the heart at the close of the day filled with marvellous joy and peace.
