This Day's Thought

Language has created the word “loneliness” to express the pain of being alone, and the word “solitude” to express the glory of being alone.

Paul Tillich

This Day's Verse

Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things. And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him.

John 8:28-29
The King James Version

This Day's Reprise

If you are a Christian, you are not a citizen of this world trying to get to heaven; you are a citizen of heaven making your way through this world.

This Day's Thought

Think how completely all the griefs of this mortal life will be compensated by one age, for instance, of the felicities beyond the grave, and then think that one age multiplied ten thousand times is not so much to eternity as one grain of sand is to the whole material universe. Think what a state it will be to be growing happier and happier still as ages pass away, and yet leave something still happier to come!

John Foster

This Day's Verse

Be not envious of evil men, nor desire to be with them; for their minds devise violence, and their lips talk of mischief.

Proverbs 24:1-2
The Revised Standard Version

This Day's Reprise

Prayer is the slender nerve that moves the muscle of Omnipotence.

C. H. Spurgeon

There is a City of God, and its Founder has inspired us with a love which makes us covet its citizenship.

Augustine

This Day's Verse

The Lord preserves the faithful

Psalm 31:23
The English Standard Version

This Day's Reprise

If our greatest need had been information, God would have sent an educator.  If our greatest need had been technology, God would have sent us a scientist.  If our greatest need had been money, God would have sent us an economist.  But since our greatest need was forgiveness, God sent us a Savior.

This Day's Thought

If Christ had paid 99.9% of the debt of sin, not one of us would have a chance at heaven.

Charles Swindoll

This Day's Verse

The world ignores us, but we are known to God; we live close to death, but here we are, still very much alive.  We have been injured but kept from death.  Our hearts ache, but at the same time we have the joy of the Lord.  We are poor, but we give rich spiritual gifts to others.  We own nothing, and yet we enjoy everything.

2 Corinthians 6:9-10
The Living Bible

This Day's Smile

Once I sought a time and place for solitude and prayer; but now where’er I find thy face I find a closet there.
