This Day's Thought

Take all the pleasures of all the spheres,
And multiply each through endless years,—
One minute of heaven is worth them all.

Thomas Moore

This Day's Verse

David sang to the Lord the words of this song when the Lord delivered him from the hand of all his enemies and from the hand of Saul. He said: “The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation. He is my stronghold, my refuge and my savior—from violent people you save me.

2 Samuel 22:1-3
The New International Version

This Day's Reprise

Secret, fervent, believing prayer lies at the root of all personal godliness.

This Day's Thought

I asked God for strength, that I might achieve
I was made weak, that I might learn humbly to obey…
I asked for health, that I might do greater things
I was given infirmity, that I might do better things…
I asked for riches, that I might be happy
I was given poverty, that I might be wise…
I asked for power, that I might have the praise of men
I was given weakness, that I might feel the need of God…
I asked for all things, that I might enjoy life
I was given life that I might enjoy all things…
I got nothing that I asked for—but everything I had hoped for
Almost despite myself, my unspoken prayers were answered.
I am, among all men, most richly blessed.

This Day's Verse

He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.

Psalm 91:4
The New International Version

This Day's Smile

To hold the same views at forty as we held at twenty is to have been stupefied for a score of years, and take rank, not as a prophet, but as an unteachable brat, well birched and none the wiser.

Robert Louis Stevenson

This Day's Thought

No shelter can be imaged at all comparable to the protection of Jehovah’s own shadow. The Almighty himself is where his shadow is, and hence those who dwell in his secret place are shielded by himself.

Charles Spurgeon

This Day's Verse

If ye love me, keep my commandments. And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.

John 14:15-17
The King James Version

This Day's Smile

Much like our lives, which start out as a blank canvas, we face trials and tribulations along the journey…Through these experiences, whether joyful or difficult, God adds color and texture along our paths to create a beautiful masterpiece.
