NOVEMBER 19th

FROM THE HEART
A DAILY INSPIRATIONAL
CALENDAR
by HELEN STEINER RICE



HELP US TO REMEMBER
THAT THE KEY TO LIFE AND LIVING
IS TO MAKE EACH PRAYER A PRAYER
OF THANKS AND EVERY DAY "THANKSGIVING."



I WILL PRAISE THE NAME OF GOD WITH A SONG,
AND WILL MAGNIFY HIM WITH THANKSGIVING.



PSALM 69:30



TODAY BE THANKFUL FOR YOUR BLESSINGS AND SHARE
WITH THOSE NOT SO WELL-BLESSED. BE GRATEFUL FOR
YOUR TALENTS. USE SOME DEGREE OF THOSE TALENTS
TO HELP THOSE IN NEED.





TO LIVE IN HOPE MEANS TO EXPECT THAT
OUR LONGINGS WILL BE FULFILLED.
WHEN WE HOLD THAT IMAGE OF
FULFILLMENT CONSTANTLY,
WE CANNOT HELP BUT NOTICE ALL THE WAYS
IN WHICH OUR LIVES ARE BLESSED.

WHO BIDS ME HOPE, AND IN THAT CHARMING WORD
HAS PEACE AND TRANSPORT TO MY SOUL RESTOR'D.

-GEARGE LYTTLETON-



WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO LIVE A LIFE OF HOPE?
NOTHING MORE THAN A WILLING HEART.
UNKNOWN



HOPEFUL PEOPLE HAVE A PEACE ABOUT THEM,
A WAY OF LOOKING AT EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENS
AS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR GROWTH AND HAPPINESS.
THEIR LIVES ARE NOT ANY EASIER THAN ANYONE ELSE'S;
IT'S THEIR ATTITUDE THAT SETS THEM APART.

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



SO THAT YOU MAY HAVE GREAT
ENDURANCE AND PATIENCE...



COLOSSIANS 1:11



YOUR DESIRE FOR THE THING YOU
WISH IS PERHAPS STRONGER THAN
YOUR DESIRE FOR THE WILL OF GOD
TO BE FULFILLED IN ITS ARRIVAL. GOD'S
FOUNDATIONS ARE STEADY; AND WHEN
HIS PATIENCE IS WITHIN, WE ARE STEADY
WHILE WE WAIT. WHILE YOU WAIT...
YOU WILL FIND GREAT ENRICHMENT.



PREPARING YOUR HEART
FOR PRAYER



THE RICH COMMUNICATION BETWEEN US AND
GOD IN PRAYER ENABLES US TO RELATE TO
OTHER PEOPLE AS HE RELATES TO US.

-JAMES HOUSTON-



THE LORD WILL BE GRACIOUS TO WHOM HE WILL
BE GRACIOUS, AND HE WILL HAVE COMPASSION ON
WHOM HE WILL HAVE COMPASSION.



EXODUS 33:19



JESUS HAD COMPASSION ON THE CROWDS,
BECAUSE THEY WERE LIKE SHEEP WITHOUT
A SHEPHERD. SO HE BEGAN TO TEACH
THEM MANY THINGS.



MARK 6:34



I WILL NOT DEPEND ON HUMAN STRENGTH,
BUT ON THE LORD MY GOD FOR HELP AND DELIVERANCE.



2 CHRONICLES 16:7-8,12



THE BROTHER IN HUMBLE CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD
GLORY IN HIS HIGH POSITION, AND THE ONE WHO IS
RICH SHOULD GLORY IN HIS HUMILIATION, BECAUSE
HE WILL PASS AWAY LIKE A FLOWER OF THE FIELD.



JAMES 1:9-10



BETTER A MEAL OF VEGETABLES WHERE THERE
IS LOVE THAN A FATTENED CALF WITH HATRED.



PROVERBS 15:17



LORD, I THANK YOU FOR YOUR GRACE AND COMPASSION
AND FOR THE WAY YOUR COMPASSION WAS REVEALED IN
THE MINISTRY OF YOUR SON. I THANK YOU THAT
I CAN DEPEND ON YOU FOR HELP AND DELIVERANCE.
I WILL WALK IN HUMILITY AND AVOID STRIFE.
MAY THE LOVE OF CHRIST BE
WITH US TODAY AND ALWAYS!
IN JESUS NAME WE PRAY,
AMEN.
