This Day's Thought

Riches, honors, and pleasures are the sweets which destroy the mind’s appetite for its heavenly food; poverty, disgrace, and pain are the bitters which restore it.

George Horne

This Day's Verse

Not a single person on earth is always good and never sins.

Ecclesiastes 7:20
The New Living Translation

This Day's Smile

The first time a thing occurs in nature, it is called a miracle; later it becomes natural, and no attention is paid to it. Let your worship and your service be a fresh miracle every day to you.

This Day's Smile

Our prayers run along one road and God’s answers by another, and by and by they meet.

This Day's Thought

It is for the sake of man, not of God, that worship and prayers are required; that man may be made better—that he may be confirmed in a proper sense of his dependent state, and acquire those pious and virtuous dispositions in which his highest improvement consists.

Hugh Blair

This Day's Verse

A man’s pride will bring him low, But a humble spirit will obtain honor.

Proverbs 29:23
The New American Standard Bible

This Day's Reprise

There is a wealth of unexpressed love in the world. It is one of the chief causes of sorrow evoked by death: what might have been said or might have been done that never can be said or done.

This Day's Thought

When your grief presses you to the very dust, worship there.

C. H. Spurgeon

This Day's Verse

Let us search out and examine our ways, And turn back to the LORD;

Lamentations 3:40
The New King James Version

This Day's Reprise

Our five-year-old Jeanie took to rising at 5:30 each morning and puttering around just long enough to wake the rest of us before climbing back into bed. Her reason was always the same—she had to see if there was a surprise. Finally we told her firmly that she must stop and that there wouldn’t be any surprises until Christmas, which was months away. “I wasn’t talking about living-room surprises,” she said through her tears. “I was talking about like yesterday morning it was raining, and this morning real summer’s here, and tomorrow morning I’ll probably find some pink in the rosebuds.” Jeanie still gets up each morning at 5:30.

This Day's Thought

The most prevalent failure of Christian love is the failure to express it.

Paul E. Johnson

This Day's Verse

Oh come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the Lord, our Maker! For he is our God, and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand.

Psalm 95:6-7
The English Standard Version

This Day's Smile

Seeking to perpetuate one’s name on earth is like writing on the sand by the seashore; to be perpetual it must be written on eternal shores.

Dwight L. Moody

This Day's Thought

Be patient with every one, but above all with yourself. I mean, do not be disturbed because of your imperfections, and always rise up bravely from a fall.  I am glad that you make a daily new beginning.  There is no better means of progress in the spiritual life than to be continually beginning afresh, and never to think that we have done enough.

Francis de Sales

This Day's Verse

Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think.  Glory to him in the church and in Christ Jesus through all generations forever and ever!  Amen.

Ephesians 3:20-21
The New Living Translation

This Day's Reprise

The morning is the gate of the day, and should be well guarded with prayer.  It is one end of the thread on which the day’s actions are strung, and should be well knotted with devotion.  If we felt more the majesty of life we should be more careful of its mornings.  He who rushes from his bed to his business and without worship is as foolish as though he had not put on his clothes, or washed his face, and as unwise as though he dashed into battle without arms or armor.

C. H. Spurgeon
