Against Temptations

May the strength of my Higher Power guide me.

May the power of my Higher Power preserve me.

May the wisdom of my Higher Power instruct me.

May the hand of God protect me.

May the way of God direct me.

May the shield of God defend me.

And may the presence of, and belief in, my Higher Power guard me against the temptations of the world.

Thought for the Day

"Unless we discuss our defects with another person, we do not acquire enough humility, fearlessness, and honesty to really get the program. We must be entirely honest with somebody, if we expect to live happily in this world. We must be hard on ourselves, but always considerate of others. We pocket our pride and go to it, illuminating every twist of character and every dark cranny of the past. Once we have taken this step, withholding nothing, we can look the world in the eyes." Have I discussed all my defects with another person?

Meditation for the Day

Never yield to weariness of the spirit. At times, the world's cares and distractions will intrude and the spirit will become weak. At times like this, carry on and soon the spirit will become strong again. God's spirit is always with you, to replenish and renew. None ever sincerely sought God's help in vain. Physical weariness and exhaustion make a time of rest and communion with God more necessary. When you are overcome by temporary conditions which you cannot control, keep quiet and wait for the power of the spirit to flow back.

Prayer for the Day

I pray that I may not speak or act in the midst of emotional upheaval. I pray that I may wait until the tempest is past.

The message is hope. The promise is freedom. Just For Today, you never have to use again.

We will not be remembered by our words, but by our kind deeds.
Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath.
Today .. I wish you a day of ordinary miracles.
They say it takes a minute to find a special person, An hour to appreciate them, A day to love them, But an entire life to forget them.
