“Many times, I have been gripped by fear, resentment and unbelief.”

“Peace of mind is a mood we can create for ourselves, yet peace leaves as our attitude changes. A state of serenity is a possession deep within our souls. It cannot be taken away. It is not a placid or negative state of being. It is a positive force for good, available anytime we tune into Gods love and grace. Today I'll remember serenity comes and lasts when I stay tuned to God's will and the principles of the program.”

“A time to be born, and a time to die. We do not choose to be born, and we do not choose to die. But we do choose the way we live. We cannot hope to avoid death, but we can invest a part of ourselves in those things which never die and thus live on beyond our mortal span. Now is the time to love, to support, and to enrich one another. Now is also the time to mute malice and meanness and selfishness, to avoid all that deprives life of its beauty and joy.”

Meditation for the Day “Believers in God are considered by some as peculiar people. You must even be willing to be deemed a fool for the sake of your faith. You must be ready to stand aside and let the fashions and customs of the world go by, when God's purposes are thereby forwarded. Be known by the marks that distinguish a believer in God. These are honesty, purity, unselfishness, love, gratitude, and humility. Prayer for the Day “I pray that I may be ready to profess my belief in God before others. I pray that I may not be turned aside by the skepticism and cynicism of unbelievers.”
