Salient Thought for the Day.

We deepen our misfortunes by dwelling on them.

Lines to Memorize.

I worship Thee in forms of infinite vastness.

In Thy unfathomed glory the atom of my life is magnified.

In this unfolded vision my soul is expanded;

And knowing how my finite life is contained in Thine Infinite Majesty,

My soul is at peace.

Lesson.

We must not throw away our light. If we are carrying a lantern, we do not throw it away when we come across a well-lighted place, because we think we may need it again. Similarly when our mind is bright, we must hold on to that brightness. We must hold to the light of such moments that they may sustain us in the dark hours.

Prayer.

O Thou Infinite Being, Thou art the Goal of my existence.

Thou art my one safe Guide; my one safe Shelter.

Nothing can overwhelm me as long as I depend wholly on Thy care.

Teach me to be vigilant and tireless in Thy service.

And unfaltering in my daily living.
