MAY 9TH

FROM THE HEART
A DAILY INSPIRATIONAL
CALENDAR
by HELEN STEINER RICE

THE SKY AND THE STARS, THE WAVES AND THE SEA,
THE DEW ON THE GRASS, THE LEAVES ON A TREE
ARE CONSTANT REMINDERS OF GOD AND HIS NEARNESS,
PROCLAIMING HIS PRESENCE WITH CRYSTAL-LIKE CLEARNESS.

PRAISE HIM, SUN AND MOON, PRAISE HIM,
ALL YOU SHINING STARS!

PSALM 148:3

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

TODAY THE MARVELS OF GOD'S CREATIONS WILL
AMAZE AND ASTOUND YOU. SHARE WITH A CHILD
THE THRILL OF A GLORIOUS SUNRISE, A DAZZLING
SUNSET, OR A SPECTACULAR STARRY SKY.

LOVE IS THE VITAL ESSENCE
THAT PERVADES AND PERMEATES,
FROM THE CENTER TO THE CIRCUMFERENCE,
THE GRADUATING CIRCLES OF ALL
THOUGHT AND ACTION.
LOVE IS THE TALISMAN
OF HUMAN WEAL AND WOE-
THE OPEN SESAME TO EVERY SOUL.

-ELIZABETH CADY STANTON-

LOVE CANNOT BE MEASURED IN POUNDS,
OUNCES, HOURS, OR YARDS,
YET IT GROWS LARGER ALL THE SAME.
THE ONLY WAY TO GAUGE ITS PROGRESS
IS BY SENSING HOW MUCH
YOUR HEART IS EXPANDING.

LOVE TAKES MANY SHAPES AND FORMS,
EACH WITH ITS OWN PERSONALITY.
VALUE AND APPRECIATE EVERY ONE
FOR THE SPECIAL JOY IT BRINGS TO YOUR LIFE.

STREAMS IN THE DESERT
DAILY THOUGHTS FROM
THE DEVOTIONAL CLASSIC
by MRS. CHARLES E. COWMAN

IT DID NOT HAVE MUCH SOIL ...

MATTHEW 13:5

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

I SUPPOSE THE SHALLOW PEOPLE
ARE ... THOSE WHO HAVE NO REAL
PURPOSE. IT LOOKS AS IF THEY WOULD
AMOUNT TO SOMETHING; BUT NOT
MUCH SOIL- NOT DEPTH, NO DEEP,
HONEST PURPOSE, NO EARNEST DESIRE
TO KNOW DUTY IN ORDER TO DO IT. LET
US LOOK AFTER THE SOIL OF OUR HEARTS.

PREPARING YOUR HEART
FOR PRAYER

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

IN THE ACT AND DYNAMIC OF PRAYING, I BRING MY
WHOLE LIFE UNDER GOD'S GAZE. YES, HE KNOWS
WHAT IS IN MY MIND, BUT I STILL HAVE THE
PRIVILEGE OF ARTICULATING TO HIM WHAT IS THERE.
HE SAYS "COME. SPEAK TO ME. MAKE YOUR
REQUESTS KNOWN TO ME..." WE COME IN ORDER
TO KNOW HIM AND TO BE KNOWN BY HIM.

-R. C. SPROUL-

THOUGH THE LORD IS ON HIGH, YET HE LOOKS UPON THE
LOWLY, BUT THE PROUD HE KNOWS FROM AFAR.

PSALM 138:6

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

BY GOD'S GRACE I WANT TO LIVE TO THE END IN FAITH,
KNOWING THAT I WILL NOT RECEIVE THE PROMISES ON
EARTH, BUT SEEING THEM AND WELCOMING THEM FROM
A DISTANCE, I CONFESS THAT I AM A STRANGER AND A PILGRIM
ON THE EARTH. INSTEAD, I LONG FOR A BETTER COUNTRY, A
HEAVENLY ONE. IN THIS WAY, GOD WILL NOT BE ASHAMED
TO BE CALLED MY GOD, FOR HE HAS PREPARED A CITY FOR ME.
LIKE MOSES, I ESTEEM REPROACH FOR THE SAKE OF CHRIST
AS OF GREATER VALUE THAN THE TREASURES OF THIS WORLD,
BECAUSE I AM LOOKING TO THE REWARD.

HEBREWS 11:13,16,26

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

I WANT TO BE ABOVE REPROACH, TEMPERATE, SENSIBLE,
RESPECTABLE, HOSPITABLE, ABLE TO TEACH, NOT GIVEN
TO DRUNKENNESS, NOT VIOLENT BUT GENTLE, NOT QUARRELSOME,
NOT A LOVER OF MONEY, ONE WHO MANAGES HIS OWN
FAMILY WELL, AND WHO KEEPS HIS CHILDREN UNDER CONTROL
WITH PROPER RESPECT. AND I WANT A GOOD REPUTATION
WITH OUTSIDERS, SO THAT I WILL NOT FALL INTO DISGRACE
AND THE SNARE OF THE DEVIL.

1 TIMOTHY 3:2-4,7

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

LORD, I THANK YOU THAT YOU LOOK UPON
THE LOWLY AND THAT CHRIST SERVES THE
LOWLY IN THE POWER OF YOUR SPIRIT. I
THANK YOU FOR THE CERTAINTY OF YOUR
PROMISES, AS I PURPOSE TO LIVE IN A WAY
THAT IS PLEASING TO YOU AND BENEFICIAL TO OTHERS.

MAY THE LOVE OF CHRIST BE
WITH US TODAY AND ALWAYS!
IN JESUS NAME WE PRAY,
AMEN.
