Today's daily thought has been brought to you from
Jonathan Bagster's Daily Light on the Daily Path.
Morning
When ye shall have done all those things which
are commanded you, say, We are unprofitable servants.
Where [is] boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of
works? Nay: but by the law of faith.--What hast thou that thou
didst not receive? now if thou didst receive [it], why dost thou
glory, as if thou hadst not received [it]?--By grace are ye
saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: [it is] the
gift of God: not of works, lest any man should boast. For we are
his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which
God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
By the grace of God I am what I am: and his grace which [was
bestowed] upon me was not in vain; but I laboured more
abundantly than they all: yet not I, but the grace of God which
was with me.--For of him, and through him, and to him, [are] all
things.--All things [come] of thee, and of thine own have we
given thee.
Enter not into judgment with thy servant: for in thy sight
shall no man living be justified.

Evening
He knoweth our frame; he remembereth that we [are] dust.
The LORD God formed man [of] the dust of the ground, and
breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a
living soul.
I will praise thee; for I am fearfully [and] wonderfully
made: marvellous [are] thy works; and [that] my soul knoweth
right well. My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made
in secret, [and] curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the
earth. Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and
in thy book all [my members] were written, [which] in
continuance were fashioned, when [as yet there was] none of
them.
Have we not all one father? hath not one God created us?--In
him we live, and move, and have our being.--Like as a father
pitieth [his] children, [so] the LORD pitieth them that fear
him.
He, [being] full of compassion, forgave [their] iniquity, and
destroyed [them] not: yea, many a time turned he his anger away,
and did not stir up all his wrath. For he remembered that they
[were but] flesh; a wind that passeth away, and cometh not
again.
