This Day’s Thought-Friday

Educating people to die meaningful deaths is one way to describe the teaching mission of the church.

John A. Harms

Remember what Christ taught, and let his words enrich your lives and make you wise; teach them to each other and sing them out in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing to the Lord with thankful hearts.

Colossians 3:16
The Living Bible

You can train yourself to be patient. You can train yourself to open the space between the match and the fuse.

This Day’s Thought-Thursday

There is in man a higher than love of happiness; he can do without happiness, and instead thereof find blessedness!

Thomas Carlyle

Thine own friend, and thy father’s friend, forsake not; neither go into thy brother’s house in the day of thy calamity: for better is a neighbour that is near than a brother far off.

Proverbs 27:10
The King James Version

The Christian who is truly spiritual revels as much in his ignorance of God as in his knowledge of him.

John Blanchard

This Day’s Thought-Wednesday

The way we respond to criticism pretty much depends on the way we respond to praise. If praise humbles us, then criticism will build us up. But if praise inflates us, then criticism will crush us; and both responses lead to defeat.

Warren W. Wiersbe

“But we believe that we are saved through the grace of the Lord Jesus,”

Acts 15:11
The New American Standard Bible

Now we have learned that it is the secular school student who is overprotected. He is protected from the basic facts of right and wrong. He then confronts the slings and arrows of the real world-naked.

This Day’s Thought-Tuesday

No child of God sins to that degree as to make himself incapable of forgiveness.

John Bunyan

As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. If anyone speaks, let him speak as the oracles of God. If anyone ministers, let him do it as with the ability which God supplies, that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belong the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.

1 Peter 4:10-11
The New King James Version

Much of what is sacred is hidden in the ordinary, everyday moments of our lives. To see something of the sacred in those moments takes slowing down so we can live our lives more reflectively.

This Day’s Thought-Monday

Holiness is a state of soul in which all the powers of the body and mind are consciously given up to God.

Phoebe Palmer

May the LORD bless his people with peace!

Psalm 29:11
The English Standard Version

One day, people noticed Rabbi Nosson Tzvi Finkel, the Alter of Slabodka, enjoying a private banquet. What was the occasion? He had been told that a man in a far-off land–whom he did not know—had won a great prize. So the Alter was full of joy for him. And so he made himself a party.

This Day’s Thought-Friday

What else are the laws of God written in our hearts but the very presence of the Holy Ghost?

Augustine

Do not worry about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.

Philippians 4:6
The New Revised Standard Version

Some persons’ lives are too much like my friend’s house. When he recently painted it himself, he found that others who had painted it before had neglected all the points which were out of sight of the ground. Many people have used their religion only to “touch up the high points” of their lives. Business, race relations, prejudices have gone sadly untouched by the brush.

This Day’s Thought-Thursday

Read the Bible, not as a newspaper, but as a home letter. If a cluster of heavenly fruit hangs within reach, gather it. If a promise lies upon the page as a blank check, cash it. If a prayer is recorded, appropriate it, and launch it as a feathered arrow from the bow of your desire. If an example of holiness gleams before you, ask God to do as much for you. If the truth is revealed in all its intrinsic splendor, entreat that its brilliance may ever irradiate the hemisphere of your life.

F. B. Meyer

The hope of the righteous shall be gladness: but the expectation of the wicked shall perish.

Proverbs 10:28
The King James Version

As we begin to see the package God is putting together in our lives and discover his purposes for bringing us to our world, it will provide us with the framework we need to make wise choices. In addition, we will find that a sense of purpose gives hope in the midst of tragedy and difficulty, gives meaning to the mundane aspects of our lives, and helps us to make our lives count for God.

This Day’s Thought-Wednesday

As we practice the work of forgiveness we discover more and more that forgiveness and healing are one.

Agnes Sanford

“When you have eaten and are satisfied, you shall bless the LORD your God for the good land which He has given you.”

Deuteronomy 8:10
The New American Standard Bible

Grant me, O Lord, the royalty of inward happiness and the serenity which comes from living close to Thee. Daily renew in me the sense of joy, fill every corner of my heart with light and life that I may be a diffuser of life and meet all ills and troubles with gallant high-hearted happiness, giving Thee thanks always for all things. Amen.

This Day’s Thought-Tuesday

The soul which loves God for His own sake gladly escapes from the business of the world to think of Him, recollects Him in little chinks and intervals of time, takes occasion of all things to think of Him, and is glad of the hours of prayer to be with Him.

Edward B. Pusey

Flee the evil desires of youth and pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace, along with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

2 Timothy 2:22
The New International Version

God never built a Christian strong enough to carry today’s duties and tomorrow’s anxieties piled on top of them.

The Spirit’s control will replace sin’s control. His power is greater than the power of all your sin.

Erwin W. Lutzer

Oh, that men would give thanks to the Lord for His goodness, And for His wonderful works to the children of men! For He satisfies the longing soul, And fills the hungry soul with goodness.

Psalm 107:8-9
The New King James Version

Every sunrise is a message from God, and every sunset is his signature.
