Daily Inspiration, Scripture, Meditation and Prayer
September 22

Praise accomplishes great things. Lord, let me be your instrument in touching lives and changing hearts.

Scripture for the Day
"If there is any encouragement in Christ, any consolation from love, any sharing in the Spirit, any compassion and sympathy, make my joy complete: be of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind." — Philippians 2:1-2

Meditation for the Day
There is great joy in living the spiritual life. A faith without joy is not entirely genuine. If we are not happier as a result of our faith, there is probably something wrong. Faith in God can bring us a deep feeling of happiness and security, no matter what happens on the surface of our life. Each new day is another opportunity to serve God and improve our relationships with other people. This can bring joy. Life can be abundant and outreaching. It can be glowing and outgoing, in ever widening circles.

Prayer for the Day
I pray that my horizons may grow ever wider. I pray that I may keep reaching out for more service and companionship.
