This Day's Thought

God has never turned away the questions of a sincere searcher.

Max Lucado


This Day's Verse

So let all thine enemies perish, O Lord: but let them that love him be as the sun when he goeth forth in his might.

Judges 5:31
The King James Version


This Day's Smile

There is a language in nature that speaks of the existence of God.  It is the language of order, beauty, perfection, and intelligence.

Billy Graham

This Day’s Thought-Thursday


This Day's Thought

Jesus has many lovers of the heavenly kingdom, but few bearers of his cross.  He has many desirous of consolation, but few of tribulation.  He finds many companions of his table, but few of his abstinence.  All desire to rejoice with him, few are willing to endure anything for him, or with him.  Many follow Jesus to the breaking of bread, but few to the drinking of the cup.  Many reverence his miracles, few follow the ignominy of his cross.  Many love Jesus so long as no adversities befall them, many praise and bless him so long as they receive any consolations from him; but if Jesus hides himself and leaves them but a little while, they fall either into complaining or into too much dejection of mind.

Thomas à Kempis


This Day's Verse

Yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will joy in the God of my salvation.

Habakkuk 3:18
The King James Version


This Day's Reprise

We judge others by their actions; we judge ourselves by our intentions.

This Day's Thought

One of my great encouragements is to be friends with those who were personally acquainted with A. W. Tozer.  This man, who knew God so intimately, had days when he was so discouraged he felt he could not continue as a minister.  A man who instructed thousands in the deep things of God often felt he was a miserable failure.

Erwin W. Lutzer


This Day's Verse

The Lord reigns; he is robed in majesty; the Lord is robed; he has put on strength as his belt.  Yes, the world is established; it shall never be moved.  Your throne is established from of old; you are from everlasting.

Psalm 93:1-2
The English Standard Version


This Day's Smile

We are all at different places on the “road of life” but the same distance from the ditch.

This Day's Thought

God uses unlikely fighters to face unbeatable giants, so He can accomplish an unimaginable victory.

Greg Stier


This Day's Verse

Grace, mercy and peace from God the Father and from Jesus Christ, the Father’s Son, will be with us in truth and love.

2 John 1:3
The New International Version


This Day's Reprise

A preacher comes up to a farmer in his field and remarks, “Mighty fine farm you and the Lord have made.”  “Yep,” replies the farmer, “but you should have seen it when He had it all to Himself.”

This Day's Thought

Scholarship should follow faith, not guide it or intrude upon it.  I am, after all, beyond human comprehension and I do things you cannot understand.

Thomas à Kempis


This Day's Verse

But there will be glory and honor and peace from God for all who do good—for the Jew first and also for the Gentile.  For God does not show favoritism.

Romans 2:10-11
The New Living Translation


This Day's Smile

Without somehow destroying me in the process, how could God reveal himself in a way that would leave no room for doubt?  If there were no room for doubt, there would be no room for me.

This Day's Thought

Let him make our lives narrow; let him make them intense; let him make them absolutely his!

Oswald Chambers


This Day's Verse

Let not steadfast love and faithfulness forsake you; bind them around your neck; write them on the tablet of your heart.  So you will find favor and good success in the sight of God and man.

Proverbs 3:3-4
The English Standard Version


This Day's Smile

God is big enough to rule His mighty universe, yet small enough to live within my heart!

This Day's Thought

By personal calling and Scripture, I am bound to the Word of God and to the preaching (teaching, writing, speaking, etc.) of what the Bible says.  There are few things that burden me more or refresh me more than saying what I see in the Bible.

John Piper


This Day's Verse

Oh, send out your light and your truth—let them lead me. Let them lead me to your Temple on your holy mountain, Zion.

Psalm 43:3
The Living Bible


This Day's Reprise

When a young minister was still single, he preached a sermon he entitled “Rules for Raising Children.”  After he got married and had children of his own, he changed the title of the sermon to “Suggestions for Raising Children.”  When his children got to be teen-agers, he stopped preaching on that subject altogether.

This Day's Thought

All the wants which disturb human life, which make us uneasy to ourselves, quarrelsome with others, and unthankful to God, which weary us in vain labors and foolish anxieties, which carry us from project to project, from place to place in a poor pursuit of we don’t know what, are the wants which neither God nor nature, nor reason hath subjected us to, but are solely infused into us by pride, envy, ambition, and covetousness.

William Law


This Day's Verse

“Can you search out the deep things of God?  Can you find out the limits of the Almighty?  They are higher than heaven—what can you do?  Deeper than Sheol—what can you know?  Their measure is longer than the earth And broader than the sea.”

Job 11:7-9
The New King James Version


This Day's Smile

A woman passenger on an airliner was sitting next to a clergyman.  She became increasingly nervous as the jet ran into thunder squalls and began to be buffeted by severe downdrafts and crosswinds.  After one particularly alarming air pocket that must had dropped the plane several hundred feet, the woman looked at the minister and said, “Please sir, can’t you do something that will stop this storm and save our lives?”  “I’m sorry, madam,” he replied, “but I’m connected with sales, not with management.”

This Day's Thought

Joy is not the absence of sadness or the presence of the spectacular.  It’s the undercurrent of understanding God’s goodness in every season.

Tauren Wells


This Day's Verse

Do not repay anyone evil for evil.  Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everyone.  If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.

Romans 12:17-18
The New International Version


This Day's Reprise

One of the most joyful people I’ve ever met was a Native American woman from Arizona.  She grew up in a large and terribly poor family.  Still, they shared everything they had with their friends and neighbors.  When they were down to their last five dollars, her father would always say: “Let’s have a party!”  He’d spend that five dollars on ice cream and invite all the neighbors to come over.  By God’s grace her family always had all that they needed.  Even in the pits of depression, we, too, can throw a party.  We are the children of a loving God!  We can rejoice in the sure hope that God will get us through any trial or tribulation.

This Day's Thought

Acceptances says, “True, this is my situation at the moment.  I’ll look unblinkingly at the reality of it.  But I’ll also open my hands to accept willingly whatever a loving Father sends me.”

Catherine Marshall


This Day's Verse

The wilderness and the solitary place shall be glad for them; and the desert shall rejoice, and blossom as the rose.  It shall blossom abundantly, and rejoice even with joy and singing: the glory of Lebanon shall be given unto it, the excellency of Carmel and Sharon, they shall see the glory of the Lord, and the excellency of our God.

Isaiah 35:1-2
The King James Version


This Day's Smile

The world has yet to see what God can do with and for and through and in a man who is fully and wholly consecrated to Christ.
