Salient Thought
for the Day
Be faithful above everything.
Lines
to Memorize
My heart is Thy throne,
Humility is its pedestal,
Faith its cornerstone;
Prayers are its sweet frankincense.
The lamp of my life will burn day and night
If Thou wilt come and sit upon this lowly throne.
Lesson
Our Ideal may seem very far, very unobtainable. That is the time for us to show courage and strength. Those who show courage and steadfast devotion to their Ideal are bound to succeed. We gain the highest by fulfilling our ordinary tasks and duties. Every duty is a privilege. Every task that comes our way is a blessing. Every time we have a chance to do something for God or His children it should be a great joy.
Prayer
O Eternal One! Fill my mind with the light of understanding.
Grant unto me firm resolution
That I may follow Your path with courage that never fails.
Help me to draw You close in my heart.
Teach me to lean upon You wholly and never to seek my own will.
May Your peace and blessing rest upon me and upon all living beings.
