“Please don’t let go of your 24 Hour Chip; it’s The token to get on the Magic Bus!”

Three readings. A song that says the rest. And inspiration for whatever this day is here to teach.

Meditation for the Day

Meditation for the Day “I believe that life is a school in which I must learn spiritual things. I must trust in God and He will teach me. I must listen to God; He will speak through my mind. I must commune with Him in spite of all opposition and every obstacle. There will be days when I will hear no voice, no intimate heart-to-heart communion. But if I persist, and make a life habit of schooling myself in spiritual things, God will reveal Himself to me in many ways. Prayer for the Day I pray that I may regularly go to school in things of the Spirit. I pray that I may grow spiritually by making a practice of these things.”

Meditation for the Day

Meditation for the Day “If you believe that God's grace has saved you, then you must believe that He is meaning to save you yet more, and to keep you in the way that you should go. Even a human rescuer would not save you from drowning only to place you in other deep and dangerous waters. Rather, he would place you on dry land, there to restore you. God, who is your rescuer, would certainly do this and even more. God will complete the task He sets out to do. He will not throw you overboard, if you are depending on Him. Prayer for the Day I pray that I may trust God to keep me in The Way. I pray that I may rely on Him not to let me go.”
