September 16 Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of Jehovah is risen upon thee. – Isa 60:1 Yes, to this thought I hold with firm persistence—The last result of wisdom stamps it true: He only earns his freedom and existence Who daily conquers them anew. — Goethe. For thee hath been dawning Another blue day; Look how thou let it Slip empty away. — Goethe. Happy the man, and happy he alone, Who can call to-day his own: He who, secure within, can say, “To-morrow, do thy worst, for I have lived to-day.” — John Dryden. Prayer Gracious Father, help me to be alert this morning and select the noblest that is in to-day. May I be diligent and not find in the evening that I have been unworthy of the day. Amen.
