Daily Inspiration, Scripture, Meditation and Prayer
June 7

Your thoughts can be your worst enemy if you let them run away with you. Lord, free me to enjoy each moment of my day no matter what circumstances surround me.

Scripture for the Day
"Seek the LORD and his strength; seek his presence continually." — Psalm 105:4

Meditation for the Day
Not only can we live a new life, but we can also grow in grace and power and beauty. We can reach ever forward and upward after the things of the spirit. In the animal world, the very form of an animal changes to enable it to reach that upon which it delights to feed. Our whole character changes as we reach upward for the things of the spirit — for beauty, for love, for honesty, for purity and for unselfishness. Reaching after these things of the spirit, our whole nature can become changed so that we can best receive and delight in the wonders of the abundant life.

Prayer for the Day
I pray that I may reach forward and upward. I pray that my character may be changed by this reaching upward for the things of the spirit.
