Thoughts for the Quiet Hour - January 25
My God shall be my strength. —Isaiah 49:5
Oh, do not pray for easy lives! Pray to be stronger men! Do not pray for tasks equal to your powers; pray for powers equal to your tasks! Then the doing of your work shall be no miracle. But you shall be a miracle. Every day you shall wonder at yourself, at the richness of life which has come in you by the grace of God. —Phillips Brooks
