This Day’s Thought-Tuesday


This Day's Thought

Before God changes our circumstances, He wants to change our hearts.

Warren Wiersbe


This Day's Verse

Then Jesus said to them, “Don’t you understand this parable? How then will you understand any parable? The farmer sows the word. Some people are like seed along the path, where the word is sown. As soon as they hear it, Satan comes and takes away the word that was sown in them. Others, like seed sown on rocky places, hear the word and at once receive it with joy. But since they have no root, they last only a short time. When trouble or persecution comes because of the word, they quickly fall away. Still others, like seed sown among thorns, hear the word; but the worries of this life, the deceitfulness of wealth and the desires for other things come in and choke the word, making it unfruitful. Others, like seed sown on good soil, hear the word, accept it, and produce a crop—some thirty, some sixty, some a hundred times what was sown.”

Mark 4:13-20
The New International Version


This Day's Reprise

A violin-maker in the old days always chose the wood for his violins from the north side of the trees; it was the side upon which the wind and the storms had beaten. So he said when he heard the groaning of the trees in the forest at night he didn’t feel sorry for them, for they were just learning to be violins.

This Day’s Thought-Wednesday


This Day's Thought

No matter how good your life is at any moment, there’s always something bad you need to work on.  And no matter how bad your life may appear to be, there is always something to be grateful for.  Behind every public success, you will find some kind of private pain.  There is no such thing as a painless life.  But pain can build and deepen your character if you respond in the right way.

Rick Warren


This Day's Verse

“And don’t be afraid of the people, for I, the Lord, will be with you and see you through.”

Jeremiah 1:8
The Living Bible


This Day's Smile

It is a good and safe rule to sojourn in every place as if you meant to spend your life there, never omitting an opportunity of doing a kindness, or speaking a true word, or making a friend.

John Ruskin
