FROM THE HEART
A DAILY INSPIRATIONAL
CALENDAR
HELEN STEINER RICE
SHOW ME THE WAY, NOT TO FORTUNE OR FAME,
NOT TO WIN LAURELS OR PRAISE FOR MY NAME...
BUT SHOW ME THE WAY TO SPREAD THE GREAT
STORY...
THAT THINE IS THE KINGDOM, THE POWER, AND THE GLORY.
I HAVE SEEN YOU IN THE SANCTUARY AND
BEHELD YOUR POWER AND YOUR GLORY.
PSALM 63:2
TODAY CONCENTRATE ON WAYS TO
SPREAD THE GOOD NEWS.
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.

HAS PEACE AND TRANSPORT TO MY SOUL RESTOR'D.
-GEORGE LYTTLETON-

NOTHING MORE THAN A WILLING HEART.

DAILY THOUGHTS FROM
THE DEVOTIONAL CLASSIC
by MRS. CHARLES E. COWMAN
BEING FULLY PERSUADED THAT GOD HAD
POWER TO DO WHAT HE HAD PROMISED.
ROMANS 4:21
HE IS THE GOD OF BOUNDLESS RESOURCES. THE ONLY
LIMIT IS IN US. CLIMB TO THE TREASURE HOUSE OF
BLESSING ON THE LADDER MADE OF DIVINE PROMISES.
BY A PROMISE AS BY A KEY OPEN THE DOOR TO THE
RICHES OF GOD'S GRACE AND FAVOR.
PREPARING YOUR HEART
FOR PRAYER
PRAYER IS NOT THE FOE TO WORK; IT DOES NOT
PARALYZE ACTIVITY. IT WORKS MIGHTILY; PRAYER
ITSELF IS THE GREATEST WORK.
-E. M. BOUNDS-
O LORD, GOD OF ISRAEL, THERE IS NO GOD LIKE
YOU IN HEAVEN ABOVE OR ON EARTH BELOW;
YOU KEEP YOUR COVENANT AND MERCY WITH
YOUR SERVANTS WHO WALK BEFORE YOU WITH
ALL THEIR HEART.
1 KINGS 8:23
2 CHRONICLES 6:14
YOU PROMISED TO RESTORE THE CHILDREN OF
ISRAEL AND JUDAH, SAYING, "THEY SHALL BE MY
PEOPLE, AND I WILL BE THEIR GOD. AND I WILL
GIVE THEM ONE HEART AND ONE WAY, SO THAT
THEY WILL ALWAYS FEAR ME FOR THEIR OWN
GOOD AND THE GOOD OF THEIR CHILDREN AFTER THEM."
JEREMIAH 32:38-39
IT IS FOR MY GOOD THAT YOU RETURNED
TO THE FATHER, BECAUSE YOU HAVE SENT
THE COUNSELOR, THE HOLY SPIRIT, TO ME.
JOHN 16:7
THE NAME OF THE LORD IS A STRONG TOWER;
THE RIGHTEOUS RUN TO IT AND ARE SAFE.
PROVERBS 18:10
I WILL STOP TRUSTING IN MAN, WHOSE BREATH IS IN
HIS NOSTRILS. FOR IN WHAT SHOULD HE BE ESTEEMED?
ISAIAH 2:22
LORD, I THANK YOU THAT YOU ARE UTTERLY UNIQUE AND
THAT YOU ARE FAITHFUL TO YOUR PROMISES. I THANK YOU
FOR THE HOLY SPIRIT WHO LIVES IN ME AND COMFORTS ME.
I WILL TRUST IN YOU MY STRONG TOWER.
MAY THE LOVE OF CHRIST BE
WITH US TODAY AND ALWAYS!
IN JESUS NAME WE PRAY, AMEN.
