For Such A Little While

SEPTEMBER 11TH

FROM THE HEART
A DAILY INSPIRATIONAL
CALENDAR
by HELEN STEINER RICE



SEASONS COME AND GO AND WITH THEM COMES THE THOUGHT
OF ALL THE VARIOUS CHANGES THAT TIME IN ITS FLIGHT HAS BROUGHT.
BUT ONE THING NEVER CHANGES, IT REMAINS THE SAME FOREVER,
GOD TRUELY LOVES HIS CHILDREN AND HE WILL FORSAKE THEM NEVER!



DO NOT HIDE YOUR FACE FROM ME, DO NOT TURN YOUR SERVANT AWAY IN ANGER; YOU HAVE BEEN MY HELPER. DO NOT REJECT ME OR FORSAKE ME, O GOD MY SAVIOR.



PSALM 27:9



TODAY SEEK WAYS TO ENCOURAGE THE ELDERLY,
THE MIDDLE-AGED, OR THE YOUNG IN A
SCHOLARLY OR SPIRITUAL WAY.






HOPEFUL EYES LOOK UPWARD,
PENETRATING THE THICK BLANKET OF
CLOUDS TO CLEAR BLUE SKIES BEYOND.

HOPE SAYS,
"NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES
I FALL,
I WILL STAND
AND START AGAIN."
FOR A PERSON OF HOPE
IS NOT ONE WHO NEVER FALLS,
BUT ONE WHO PICKS HERSELF UP
ONE MORE TIME THAN SHE FALLS.

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



WE DO NOT KNOW
WHAT TO DO, BUT OUR
EYES ARE UPON YOU...



2 CHRONICLES 20:12



IF WE WHOLLY TRUST AN INTEREST
TO GOD, WE MUST KEEP OUR HANDS
OFF IT; AND HE WILL GUARD IT FOR US
BETTER THAN WE CAN HELP HIM.
DROP THE TANGLES OF LIFE INTO
GOD'S HANDS AND LEAVE THEM THERE.



PREPARING YOUR HEART
FOR PRAYER



GOD COULD HAVE BESTOWED THESE THINGS ON US
WITHOUT OUR PRAYERS; BUT HE WISHED THAT BY
OUR PRAYERS WE SHOULD BE TAUGHT FROM WHERE
THOSE BENEFITS COME.

-ST. AUGUSTINE-



JESUS CHRIST IS THE SAME YESTERDAY,
TODAY, AND FOREVER.



HEBREWS 13:8



NO ONE CAN LAY A FOUNDATION OTHER THAN
THE ONE ALREADY LAID, WHICH IS
JESUS CHRIST.



1 CORINTHIANS 3:11



I HAVE PUT OFF THE OLD SELF WITH ITS PRACTICES
AND HAVE PUT ON THE NEW SELF,
WHO IS BEING RENEWED IN FULL KNOWLEDGE ACCORDING
TO THE IMAGE OF ITS CREATOR.



COLOSSIANS 3:9-10



IF I DO NOT JUDGE, I WILL NOT BE JUDGED;
IF I DO NOT CONDEMN, I WILL NOT BE CONDEMNED;
IF I FORGIVE, I WILL BE FORGIVEN.



LUKE 6:37



WE MUST BE DEVOTED TO ONE ANOTHER IN
BROTHERLY LOVE, HONORING ONE ANOTHER ABOVE OURSELVES.



ROMANS 12:10



LORD, I THANK YOU THAT CHRIST IS THE SURE AND
UNCHANGING FOUNDATION OF MY FAITH. I THANK YOU
THAT IN HIM I HAVE PUT ON THE NEW SELF. TEACH ME NOT
TO JUDGE OTHERS, BUT TO LOVE THEM WITH
BROTHERLY LOVE AND HONOR THEM ABOVE MYSELF.
MAY THE LOVE OF CHRIST BE
WITH US TODAY AND ALWAYS!
IN JESUS NAME WE PRAY,
AMEN.
