At opening your eyes, enter upon the day with thanksgiving for the preservation of you the last night, with the glorification of God for the works of creation.
Jeremy Taylor
O give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; for his steadfast love endures for ever!
Psalm 107:1
The Revised Standard Version
Every little blessing is far too precious to ever forget to say “thank you!”

The hunger for love is much more difficult to remove than the hunger for bread.
Mother Teresa
Then there arose a reasoning among them, which of them should be greatest. And Jesus, perceiving the thought of their heart, took a child, and set him by him, And said unto them, Whosoever shall receive this child in my name receiveth me: and whosoever shall receive me receiveth him that sent me: for he that is least among you all, the same shall be great.
Luke 9:46-48
The King James Version
Real glory springs from the silent conquest of ourselves.

If the spirit rule and the body be humbled, man will seek nothing beyond the necessary. He will be satisfied with little and will disdain superfluity.
Maimonides
Three things will last forever—faith, hope, and love—and the greatest of these is love.
1 Corinthians 13:13
The New Living Translation
Those blessings are sweetest that are won with prayers and worn with thanks.

What an immense workman is God in miniature as well as in the great! With the one hand, perhaps, He is making a ring of one hundred thousand miles in diameter, to revolve round a planet like Saturn, and with the other is forming a tooth in the ray of the feather of a hummingbird, or a point in the claw of the foot of a microscopic insect. When He works in miniature, everything is gilded, polished, and perfect; but whatever is made by human art, as a needle, etc., when viewed by a microscope appears rough, and coarse, and bungling.
William Law
For the LORD is our judge; the LORD is our lawgiver; the LORD is our king; he will save us.
Isaiah 33:22
The English Standard Version
My weight is my love.

What is Christian perfection? The loving God with all our heart, mind, soul, and strength. This implies that no wrong temper, none contrary to love, remains in the soul; and that all the thoughts, words, and actions are governed by pure love.
John Wesley
“How blessed is the man who does this, And the son of man who takes hold of it; Who keeps from profaning the sabbath, And keeps his hand from doing any evil.”
Isaiah 56:2
The New American Standard Bible
When a Christian is in the wrong place, his right place is empty.

Fear. His modus operandi is to manipulate you with the mysterious, to taunt you with the unknown. Fear of death, fear of failure, fear of God, fear of tomorrow—his arsenal is vast. His goal? To create cowardly, joyless souls. He doesn’t want you to make the journey to the mountain. He figures if he can rattle you enough, you will take your eyes off the peaks and settle for a dull existence in the flatlands.
Max Lucado
Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant
1 Corinthians 13:4
The English Standard Version
Be thankful that God’s answers are wiser than your answers.

The Christian has a deep, silent, hidden peace, which the world sees not, like some well in a retired and shady place. What he is when left to himself and to his God, that is his true life.
John Henry Newman
Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Matthew 11:28
The King James Version
Authentic religion is not a theology test. It’s a love test.

Each of us takes his place in the center of his own world. But I am not the center of the world, or the standard of reference as between good and bad; I am not, and God is. In other words, from the beginning I put myself in God’s place. This is my original sin.
William Temple
Behold, happy is the man whom God correcteth: therefore despise not thou the chastening of the Almighty: For he maketh sore, and bindeth up: he woundeth, and his hands make whole.
Job 5:17-18
The King James Version
The love of Christ becomes the mightiest force in the world to the man who is yielded to it.

It is for the sake of man, not of God, that worship and prayers are required; that man may be made better—that he may be confirmed in a proper sense of his dependent state, and acquire those pious and virtuous dispositions in which his highest improvement consists.
Hugh Blair
A man’s pride will bring him low, But a humble spirit will obtain honor.
Proverbs 29:23
The New American Standard Bible
There is a wealth of unexpressed love in the world. It is one of the chief causes of sorrow evoked by death: what might have been said or might have been done that never can be said or done.

God had given me this lesson that I could still be imperfect and be loved. That’s how God loves us. We humans are terrible at loving one another. We’re terrible at keeping peace. We’re terrible at running the world and using our free will but for some reason God loves us all anyway.
Monica Clare
“But let justice roll on like a river, righteousness like a never-failing stream!”
Amos 5:24
The New International Version
Let your old age be childlike, and your childhood like old age; that is, so that neither may your wisdom be with pride, nor your humility without wisdom.
Augustine
