This Day's Thought

The Christian teacher should pray before preaching—He will succeed more by piety in prayer than by gifts of oratory.

Augustine

This Day's Verse

For God chose to save us through our Lord Jesus Christ, not to pour out his anger on us. Christ died for us so that, whether we are dead or alive when he returns, we can live with him forever. So encourage each other and build each other up, just as you are already doing.

1 Thessalonians 5:9-11
The New Living Translation

Knowledge is proud that he has learned so much;
Wisdom is humble that he knows no more.

This Day's Thought

The greatness of God rouses fear within us, but his goodness encourages us not to be afraid of him. To fear and not be afraid—that is the paradox of faith.

Wisdom is with the aged, and understanding in length of days.

Job 12:12
