Salient Thought
for the Day
Our life must ring true. In the realm of religion we cannot pretend.
Lines to Memorize
When thy mind is filled with noble thoughts,
There is no room for small, petty, and selfish whims.
Keep thy heart well-filled with feelings that are noble and true.
Then work with thy hand;
For no act can enslave us when our heart and mind are true.
Lesson
There is a finer type of spiritual maturity. If we can manifest that, we will always glorify whatever we do. But to do this, we must be genuine and we must look beyond ourselves. We cannot live this life worthily unless we relate it with what lies behind this life. If we would enter into a more exalted realm of being, we must have patience, faith, perseverance and courage. Without these we cannot partake of the spirit of Godhood.
Prayer
I lift my heart to You who knows all my struggles and my shortcomings.
Grant that I may direct my whole life to You, never to the fleeting objects of this material world.
May my prayers be so sincere and earnest that they will always reach You.
