JULY 4TH
FROM THE HEART
A DAILY INSPIRATIONAL
CALENDAR
by HELEN STEINER RICE LET THE STARS AND STRIPES FOREVER
REMAIN A SYMBOL OF
A FREE AND MIGHTY NATION
BUILT ON FAITH AND TRUTH AND LOVE! RIGHTEOUSNESS EXALTS A NATION, BUT SIN IS A REPROACH TO ANY PEOPLE. PROVERBS 14:34
TODAY PRAY FOR INSPIRATION AND GUIDANCE
FOR THE LEADERS OF OUR CITY,STATE,NATION.
FAITH IS A CANDLE
by HELEN STEINER RICE IN THIS SICK WORLD OF HATRED
AND VIOLENCE AND SIN,
WHERE MEN RENOUNCE MORALS
AND REJECT DISCIPLINE,
WE STUMBLE IN "DARKNESS"
GROPING VAINLY FOR "LIGHT"
TO DISTINGUISH THE DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN WRONG AND RIGHT,
BUT DAWN CANNOT FOLLOW
THIS NIGHT OF DESPAIR
UNLESS FAITH LIGHTS A CANDLE
IN ALL HEARTS EVERYWHERE
AND WARMED BY THE GLOW
OUR HATE MELTS AWAY
AND LOVE LIGHTS THE PATH
TO A PEACEFUL, NEW DAY.
DON'T QUIT WHEN THINGS GO WRONG AS THEY SOMETIMES WILL,
WHEN THE ROAD YOU'RE TRUDGING SEEMS ALL UP HILL,
WHEN THE FUNDS ARE LOW, AND THE DEPTS ARE HIGH,
AND YOU WANT TO SMILE, BUT YOU HAVE TO SIGH,
WHEN CARE IS PRESSING YOU DOWN A BIT,
REST IF YOU MUST, BUT DON'T YOU QUIT. LIFE IS ODD WITH ITS TWISTS AND TURNS,
AS EVERYONE OF US SOMETIMES LEARNS
AND MANY A FAILURE TURNS ABOUT,
WHEN HE MIGHT HAVE WON HAD HE STUCK IT OUT.
DONT GIVE UP THOUGH THE PACE SEEMS SLOW,
YOU MAY SUCCEED WITH ANOTHER BLOW. SUCCESS IS FAILURE TURNED INSIDE OUT,
THE SILVER TINT OF THE CLOUDS OF DOUBT,
AND YOU NEVER CAN TELL HOW CLOSE YOU ARE.
IT MAY BE NEAR WHEN IT SEEMS SO FAR.
SO STICK TO THE FIGHT WHEN
YOU'RE HARDEST HIT.
IT'S WHEN THINGS SEEM WORST
THAT YOU MUST NOT QUIT.
Hello Tamar and thank you for your comments and I hope you have a great day and I hope your day and your week is filled with joy and happiness. Hugs and kisses from Macquire
NEVER BE DISCOURAGED
by HELEN STEINER RICE THERE IS REALLY NOTHING WE NEED KNOW
OR EVEN TRY TO UNDERSTAND
IF WE REFUSE TO BE DISCOURAGED
AND TRUST GOD'S GUIDING HAND...
SO TAKE HEART AND MEET EACH MINUTE
WITH FAITH IN GOD'S GREAT LOVE,
AWARE THAT EVERY DAY OF LIFE
IS CONTROLLED BY GOD ABOVE...
AND NEVER DREAD TOMORROW
OR WHAT THE FUTURE BRINGS,
JUST PRAY FOR STRENGTH AND COURAGE
AND TRUST GOD IN ALL THINGS...
AND NEVER GROW DISCOURAGED
BE PATIENT AND JUST WAIT
FOR"GOD NEVER COMES TOO EARLY
AND NEVER COMES TOO LATE!" CAST THY BURDEN UPON THE LORD
AND HE SHALL SUSTAIN THEE... PSALMS 55:22
DON'T QUIT WHEN THINGS GO WRONG AS THEY SOMETIMES WILL,

THE END OF THE ROAD IS BUT
A BEND IN THE ROAD
by HELEN STEINER RICE WHEN WE FEEL WE HAVE NOTHING LEFT TO GIVE AND WE ARE SURE THAT THE "SONG HAS ENDED"-
WHEN OUR DAY SEEMS OVER AND THE SHADOWS FALL AND THE DARKNESS OF NIGHT HAS DESCENDED.
WHERE CAN WE GO TO FIND THE STRENGTH
TO VALIANTLY KEEP ON TRYING,
WHERE CAN WE FIND THE HAND THAT WILL DRY THE TEARS THAT THE HEART IS CRYING-
THERE'S BUT ONE PLACE TO GO AND THAT IS TO GOD
AND, DROPPING ALL PRETENSE AND PRIDE,
WE CAN POUR OUT OUR PROBLEMS WITHOUT RESTRAINT AND GAIN STRENGTH WITH HIM AT OUR SIDE-
AND TOGETHER WE STAND AT LIFE'S CROSSROADS AND VIEW WHAT WE THINK IS THE END,
BUT GOD HAS A MUCH BIGGER VISION
AND HE TELLS US IT'S ONLY A BEND-
FOR THE ROAD GOES ON AND IS SMOOTHER,
AND THE "PAUSE IN THE SONG" IS A "REST,"
AND THE PART THAT'S UNSUNG AND UNFINISHED IS THE SWEETEST AND RICHEST AND BEST-
SO REST AND RELAX AND GROW STRONGER,
LET GO AND LET GOD SHARE YOUR LOAD,
YOUR WORK IS NOT FINISHED OR ENDED,
YOU'VE JUST COME TO "A BEND IN THE ROAD."
hi Tamar i sure miss you i am back to see you and want to stay for a while with you. nice to remember you as you stood by me too. thats why i allways miss you.. Tamar//Donny
A MOTHERS LOVE
by HELEN STEINER RICE A MOTHERS LOVE IS SOMETHING
THAT NO ONE CAN EXPLAIN-
IT IS MADE OF DEEP DEVOTION
AND OF SACRIFICE AND PAIN.
IT IS ENDLESS AND UNSELFISH
AND ENDURING, COME WHAT MAY.
FOR NOTHING CAN DESTROY IT
OR TAKE THAT LOVE AWAY.
IT IS PATIENT AND FORGIVING
WHEN ALL OTHERS ARE FORSAKING,
AND IT NEVER FAILS OR FALTERS
EVEN THOUGH THE HEART IS BREAKING.
IT BELIEVES BEYOND BELIEVING
WHEN THE WORLD AROUND CONDEMNS,
AND IT GLOWS WITH ALL THE BEAUTY
OF THE RAREST,BRIGHTEST GEMS.
IT IS FAR BEYOND DEFINING,
IT DEFIES ALL EXPLANATION,
AND IT STILL REMAINS A SECRET
LIKE THE MYSTERIES OF CREATION-
A MANY-SPLENDORED MIRACLE
WE CANNOT UNDERSTAND
AND ANOTHER WONDROUS EVIDENCE
OF GOD'S TENDER,GUIDING HAND.
