Give Thanks

When you arise in the morning, give thanks for the morning light. Give thanks for your life and your strength. Give thanks for your food and give thanks for the joy of living. And if you see no reason for giving thanks, rest assured that the fault is in yourself. (Chief Tecumseh, in Thinking Outside the Church by Jennifer Leigh Selig, p. 238)

God is with me through every change in life. (Colleen Zuck, et al. Daily Word For Healing, pl 270)

Loving, Father, give me the grace to look beyond my difficulties to the blessings in my life. (Melody Bonnette, in Daily Guideposts, 21 Sep 2007)

Seek The Truth

Seek the truth: it always shows us what we should do, what we should not do and what we should stop doing.  (Leo Tolstoy, A Calendar of Wisdom, 22 March)

There is not a single believer who from time to time has not had some hesitation about the existence of God. But these moments of hesitation are not harmful. On the contrary, they lead us to a better understanding of God. (Leo Tolstoy, A Calendar of Wisdom, 24 March)
