Today's daily thought has been brought to you from
Jonathan Bagster's Daily Light on the Daily Path.
Morning
Behold, the LORD'S hand is not shortened, that it cannot save;
neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear.
In the day when I cried thou answeredst me, [and]
strengthenedst me [with] strength in my soul.--Whiles I [was]
speaking in prayer, even the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the
vision at the beginning, being caused to fly swiftly, touched me
about the time of the evening oblation.
Hide not thy face [far] from me; put not thy servant away in
anger: thou hast been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me,
O God of my salvation.--Be not thou far from me, O LORD: O my
strength, haste thee to help me.
Ah Lord GOD! behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth
by thy great power and stretched out arm, [and] there is nothing
too hard for thee.--Who delivered us from so great a death, and
doth deliver: in whom we trust that he will yet deliver [us].--
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.

Evening
I have glorified thee on the earth.
My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish
his work.--I must work the works of him that sent me, while it
is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.
Wist ye not that I must be about my Father's business? And
they understood not the saying which he spake unto them.--This
sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the
Son of God might be glorified thereby.--Said I not unto thee,
that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of
God?
Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God
and man.--Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased.--
All bare him witness, and wondered at the gracious words which
proceeded out of his mouth.
Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals
thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy
blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;
And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall
reign on the earth.
