Daily Strength for Daily Needs
"Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: but they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk and not faint." -- 40:30-31.Lord, with what courage and delight I do each thing, When Thy least breath sustains my wing!I shine and move Like those above, And, with much gladness Quitting sadness, Make me fair days of every night.H. VAUGHAN.Man, by living wholly in submission to the Divine Influence, becomes surrounded with, and creates for himself, internal pleasures infinitely greater than any he can otherwise attain to-- a state of heavenly Beatitude.J. P. GREAVES.By persisting in a habit of self-denial, we shall, beyond what I can express, increase the inward powers of the mind, and shall produce that cheerfulness and greatness of spirit as will fit us for all good purposes; and shall not have lost pleasure, but "changed" it; the soul being then filled with its own intrinsic pleasures.HENRY MORE.
