This Day’s Thought-Tuesday

This Day's Thought

I once picked up a small girl who was wandering the streets, lost. Hunger was written all over her face. Who knows how long it had been since she had eaten anything! I offered her a piece of bread. The little one started eating, crumb by crumb. I told her, “Eat, eat the bread! Aren’t you hungry?” She looked at me and said, “I am just afraid that when I run out of bread, I’ll still be hungry.”

Mother Teresa

This Day's Verse

In everything the prudent acts with knowledge, but a fool flaunts his folly.

Proverbs 13:16
The English Standard Version

This Day's Reprise

Pray the largest prayers. You cannot think a prayer so large that God, in answering it, will not wish you had made it larger. Pray not for crutches but for wings.

This Day's Thought

“In you alone do I have all.” Such words are dear indeed unto the soul, and very close to the will and goodness of God. For he himself is eternity, and has made us for himself alone, has restored us by his blessed passion and keeps us in his blessed love. And all because he is goodness.

Julian of Norwich

O God, grant that each one who has to do with me today is the happier for it. Each hour of this day grant me the wisdom of a loving heart that I may say the right thing rightly. Give me a quick perception of the feelings and needs of others, and make me eager-hearted in helping them. Then shall my day be filled with blessing. Amen.

Hannah Whitall Smith

This Day's Thought

Sin is like some distempers of the eyes that make things to appear of different colours from those which properly belong to them.

Jonathan Edwards

This Day's Verse

“No slave can serve two masters; for a slave will either hate the one and love the other, or be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and wealth.”

Luke 16:13
The New Revised Standard Version

This Day's Reprise

There’s not much practical Christianity in the man who lives on better terms with angels and seraphs than with his children, servants and neighbours.
