This Day's Thought

What we do with our lives individually is not what determines whether we are a success or not. What determines whether we are a success is how we have affected the lives of others.

Albert Schweitzer

This Day's Verse

Blessed are those whose strength is in you, who have set their hearts on pilgrimage.

Psalm 84: 5
The New International Version

This Day's Smile

A boy was taken by his father on a camping trip in the Adirondacks. They hired a guide, left the beaten trails, and spent a week in the heart of the woods. The boy was greatly impressed by the ability of the guide to see all sorts of things, invisible to the ordinary eye. One day, after the guide had been pointing out some of the hidden secrets of nature, the lad asked with an awed voice, “Mister, can you see God?” The old man replied, “My boy, it’s getting so I can hardly see anything else when I’m out in the woods.”

What do we mean by “success” anyway? Success by whose standards? The Bible teaches that God is the final Judge before whom we shall all stand one day. God will then proclaim us successful or unsuccessful.

This Day's Verse

Bless the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me, bless his holy name Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits, who forgives all your iniquity, who heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from the pit, who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy, who satisfies you with good so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
