Salient Thought
for the Day
We cannot help anyone until we have found help ourselves.
Lines
to Memorize
When thy feet are tired, rest them.
If mind is weary, refresh it.
Pause awhile in the still peace of thy inmost cave;
Then rise again with renewed spirit of faith, hope and courage.
Lesson
We can feel secure only when we have found our connection with a Higher Power. Without this, life is a sham. To be genuine it must be founded on Truth. This inward connection with something which is absolutely dependable, we must seek. If we cannot seek it every hour, let us seek it sometimes at least. If we do seek and find even a little access to it, our service and all our actions will be enriched.
Prayer
Giver of all blessedness, who abides within me and outside of me,
Grant me a sense of Your Reality,
That I may never fail to turn to You in hours of darkness and distress.
Help me to seek all my inspiration from You;
And grant me the power to carry that inspiration
To all with whom I come in contact.
Purify my thought and sanctify my life
And grant me Your holy peace.
