Dear Ministry Members…

We begin our 25th year of ministry this coming January 1st…what a joy it has been serving you during this span of time.  And if it is in the Lord’s will, we hope to share with you for another 25 years!

Recapping from the very beginning, we have sought to share the very best in Christian thought with you, always offering new and never-previously-shared-quotations prayerfully chosen each and every day.  And we will continue to follow this model, just as we have shared Scripture from some eight different versions and paraphrases of the Bible, so as to present versions we might not be as familiar with—that might help in our expanded understanding of the Lord’s Word.

Your comments, your prayers and your financial support have meant so much to us for so long, and it is only for the Lord’s blessing, through all of you, that we have been able to continue reaching so many people from all over the world with these Christian seeds for the day.

November has historically been our month of fundraising for the ministry, and as we prepare for this next new year, we once again present the opportunity for you to consider investing in our efforts of sharing our daily messages with those in need for such encouragement and inspiration.

If you feel led to help us with your financial support as we begin our 25th year together, you may do so by clicking on the link below…

Thank you and may God bless you in your continued walk with Him.

They that love beyond the world cannot be separated by it.  Death cannot kill what never dies, nor can spirits ever be divided that love and live in the same divine principle.

William Penn

And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth.   And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?  Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.  I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.  As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.  When he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and he anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay, And said unto him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went his way therefore, and washed, and came seeing.

John 9:1-7
The King James Version

Be ever engaged, so that whenever the devil calls he may find you occupied.

If you want your neighbor to know what Christ will do for him, let the neighbor see what Christ has done for you.

Prayer can assume very different forms, from quiet, blessed contemplation of God, in which eye meets eye in restful meditation, to deep sighs or sudden exclamations of wonder, joy, gratitude or adoration.

Ole Hallesby

Apply your heart to instruction and your ears to words of knowledge.

Proverbs 23:12
The New International Version

If there is among them (the Christians) a man that is poor and needy, and they have not an abundance of necessaries, they fast two or three days that they may supply the needy with their necessary food.

In other religions, one must be purified before he can knock at the door; in Christianity, one knocks on the door as a sinner, and He Who answers to us heals.

Fulton J. Sheen

For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ.  For by one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—Jews or Greeks, slaves or free—and all were made to drink of one Spirit.

1 Corinthians 12:12-13
The Revised Standard Version

Has he taken over your heart?  Perhaps he resides there, but does he preside there?

Don’t try to reach God with your understanding; that is impossible.  Reach him in love; that is possible.

Carlo Carretto

The words of the Lord are pure words, like silver refined in a furnace on the ground, purified seven times.

Psalm 12:6
The English Standard Version

If God were to send two angels to earth, the one to occupy a throne, and the other to clean a road, they would each regard their employment as equally distinguished and equally happy.

I thank thee, O Lord, that thou hast so set eternity within my heart that no earthly thing can ever satisfy me wholly.

John Baillie

There, in the presence of the Lord your God, you and your families shall eat and shall rejoice in everything you have put your hand to, because the Lord your God has blessed you.

Deuteronomy 12:7
The New International Version

A tried Christian grows rich by his losses, he rises by his falls, he lives by dying, and he becomes full by being emptied.

A religious man who says in his heart there is a God receives his life daily by divine appointment as a gift and a task set before him.

Paul Ramsey

Receive one who is weak in the faith, but not to disputes over doubtful things.  For one believes he may eat all things, but he who is weak eats only vegetables.  Let not him who eats despise him who does not eat, and let not him who does not eat judge him who eats; for God has received him.  Who are you to judge another’s servant?  To his own master he stands or falls.  Indeed, he will be made to stand, for God is able to make him stand.

Romans 14:1-4
The New King James Version

To forget oneself is to be happy.

Robert Louis Stevenson

To believe in God must mean to live in such a manner that life could not possibly be lived if God did not exist.

Jacques Maritain

Do not toil to acquire wealth; be discerning enough to desist.

Proverbs 23:4
The English Standard Version

The Bible is, as it were, a kind of river, if I may so liken it, which is both shallow and deep, wherein both the lamb may find footing and the elephant float at large.

Gregory the Great

Though we cannot by our prayers give God any information, yet we must by our prayers give him honor.

Matthew Henry

I have discovered this principle of life—that when I want to do what is right, I inevitably do what is wrong.  I love God’s law with all my heart.  But there is another power within me that is at war with my mind.  This power makes me a slave to the sin that is still within me.  Oh, what a miserable person I am!  Who will free me from this life that is dominated by sin and death?  Thank God!  The answer is in Jesus Christ our Lord.  So you see how it is: In my mind I really want to obey God’s law, but because of my sinful nature I am a slave to sin.

Romans 7:21-25
The New Living Translation

We need never shout across the spaces to an absent God.  He is nearer than our own soul, closer than our most secret thoughts.
