Daily Inspiration, Scripture, Meditation and Prayer
June 21

We are not always what we ought to be or want to be, but through God's love we are not what we would be without Him. Lord, thank you for raising me to heights in this world that alone I could not reach and for giving me eternal life in the next.

Scripture for the Day
"So do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring worries of its own. Today's trouble is enough for today." — Matthew 6:34

Meditation for the Day
It's best for us not to think of the Red Sea of difficulties that lies ahead. We can be sure that when we come to that Red Sea, the waters will part and we will be given all the power we need to face and overcome many difficulties and meet what is in store for us with courage. We can believe that we will pass through that Red Sea to the promised land, the land of the spirit where many souls meet in perfect comradeship. We can believe that when that time comes, we will be freed of influence of material things and find peace.

Prayer for the Day
I pray that I may face the future with courage. I pray that I may be given strength to face both life and death fearlessly.
