Today's daily thought has been brought to you from
Jonathan Bagster's Daily Light on the Daily Path.
Morning
[It is] good that [a man] should both hope and quietly wait
for the salvation of the LORD.
Hath God forgotten to be gracious? hath he in anger shut up
his tender mercies?--I said in my haste, I am cut off from
before thine eyes: nevertheless thou heardest the voice of my
supplications when I cried unto thee.
Shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night
unto him, though he bear long with them? I tell you that he will
avenge them speedily.--Wait on the LORD, and he shall save thee.
--Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself
because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who
bringeth wicked devices to pass.
Ye shall not [need] to fight in this [battle]: set
yourselves, stand ye [still], and see the salvation of the LORD.
Let us not be weary in well doing: . . . in due season we
shall reap, if we faint not.--Behold, the husbandman waiteth for
the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it,
until he receive the early and latter rain.

Evening
Take us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vines:
for our vines [have] tender grapes.
Who can understand [his] errors? cleanse thou me from secret
[faults].--Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of
God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble [you], and
thereby many be defiled.--Ye did run well; who did hinder you
that ye should not obey the truth?
He which hath begun a good work in you will perform [it]
until the day of Jesus Christ.--Only let your conversation be as
it becometh the gospel of Christ.--The tongue is a little
member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a
little fire kindleth! And the tongue [is] a fire, a world of
iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, that it defileth
the whole body, and setteth on fire the course of nature; and it
is set on fire of hell. . . . The tongue can no man tame; [it
is] an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.m-Let your speech [be]
alway with grace, seasoned with salt.
