Thought for the Day

I have hope. That magic thing that I had lost or misplaced. The future looks dark no more.
I do not even look at it, except when necessary to make plans.
I try to let the future take care of itself.
The future will be made up of todays and todays, stretching out as short as now and as long as eternity.
Hope is justified by many right nows, by the rightness of the present.
Nothing can happen to me that God does not will for me.
I can hope for the best, as long as I have what I have and it is good.
Have I hope?

Meditation for the Day

Faith is the messenger that bears your prayers to God. Prayer can be like incense, rising ever higher and higher. The prayer of faith is the prayer of trust that feels the presence of God, which it rises to meet.
It can be sure of some response from God. We can say a prayer of thanks to God every day for His grace, which has kept us on the right way and allowed us to start living the good life. So we should pray to God with faith and trust and gratitude.

Prayer for the Day

I pray that I may feel sure of some response to my prayers. I pray that I may be content with whatever form that response takes.
