This Day's Thought

Is anything vital ever accomplished without persistent effort? Farmers plow and sow, and keep on plowing and sowing. Miners dig, and keep on digging, deeper and deeper. Musicians practice and keep on practicing. Scholars study, and keep on studying. And so must we—if we would know how prayer purifies, fortifies, enriches the inner life, we will have to persist.

Charles R. Brown

This Day's Thought

O Lord, give us all, we beseech Thee, grace and strength to overcome every sin; sins of besetment, deliberation, surprise, negligence, omission; sins against Thee, our self, our neighbor; sins great, small, remembered, forgotten.

Christina Rossetti


This Day's Verse

O Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his steadfast love endures for ever!

Psalm 118:1
The Revised Standard Version


This Day's Smile

The story is told of a man who got a permit to open the first tavern in a small town. The members of a local church were strongly opposed to the bar, so they began to pray that God would intervene. A few days before the tavern was scheduled to open, lightning hit the structure and it burned to the ground. The people of the church were surprised but pleased—until they received notice that the would-be tavern owner was suing them. He contended that their prayers were responsible for the burning of the building. The church members, however, vehemently denied that their prayers had anything to do with the fire. As the case made its way into court, the judge looked over the paperwork at the hearing and commented: “I don’t know how I’m going to decide this, but as it appears from the paperwork, we have a bar owner who believes in the power of prayer, and an entire church congregation that does not”.

This Day's Thought

Charity begins today. Today somebody is suffering, today somebody is in the street, today somebody is hungry. Our work is for today, yesterday has gone, tomorrow has not yet come. We have only today to make Jesus known, loved, served, fed, clothed, sheltered. Do not wait for tomorrow. Tomorrow we will not have them if we do not feed them today.

Mother Teresa


This Day's Verse

How precious to me are your thoughts, O God! How vast is the sum of them!

Psalm 139:17
The New International Version


This Day's Reprise

We ought to act with God in the greatest simplicity, speaking to Him frankly and plainly, and imploring His assistance in our affairs, just as they happen.
