THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
Daily Strength Is Furnished, Minister Says Life’s Worst Fears Are Not Realized, According to Sermon. BY THE REV. WILLIAM H. LEE SPRATT (Pastor, Victory Memorial Methodist Protestant Church) Deut. 33:25, “As the days so shall thy strength be.” What a vital and living message for today. Strength for the day—not as our life, years, months, or even weeks—but “As our days so shall our strength be.” Not for tomorrow, but for today. We are to live and labor our best, one day at a time, and the blessing of Divine strength is assured. Let us live one day at a time! Half the troubles of life’s highway are never reached, and our worst fears are not realized. Oh, the bridges we build in our minds that never materialize and which we never have to cross! God has promised us strength for the day, and He will keep His word to those who are resigned to His will and purpose. He is the unchanging amid the ever-changing. He is “the same yesterday, today and forever.” Therefore, let us step out into life, assured that the future is only one day at a time, and that each present day is to be lived in the power of this glorious promise—“As thy days so shall the strength be.” It is equally true that “as our strength so shall our day be”; that is, our service should be rendered according to the God-given strength, capacity and ability for the day. The blessings of yesterday are not sufficient for today. Yesterday’s measure of service is not sufficient if today's strength is greater. The measure of our strength is to be the measure of our service. So let us pray with the inspired poet: “Lord, for tomorrow and its needs I do not pray; “So make me strong in word and deed, just for today. Quotes Livingstone If we are tempted to dread the future, let us not forget that with recurring day our promise holds good. As David Livingstone once wrote, “Leave tomorrow’s troubles for tomorrow’s strength; tomorrow's work for tomorrow’s time; tomorrow’s trial for tomorrow's grace and tomorrow’s God.” Jesus said: “Take no thought for tomorrow.” However, forethought is not foreboding. Forethought dignifies the days, but foreboding dreads it. Let us remember that He has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you,” and again “My grace is sufficient

for thee, and my strength is made perfect in your weakness.” “Moment by moment I’m kept in His love, "Moment by moment I’ve life from above, "Moment by moment till glory doth shine, “Moment by moment, O God, I am thine.” One Step at a Time Finally, when we look into the context of this wonderful promise we find that we are only to take one step at a time each day.” “Thy shoes shall be iron and brass and as thy days so shall thy strength be.” Shoes speak of steps, and the whole verse suggests steps according to strength. The psalmist says, “The steps of a good man are ordered of the Lord.” One step at a time one moment and movement at at a time. In any trying circumstance. or dark and difficult days that may come, the Divine promise is sufficient. The supply of strength will suffice. Whatever the way may include, it also will include God and His All-sufficiency. As the Apostle Paul once seid, “Our Sufficiency is of God.” “Look from all to Jesus, “Then you need not fear; “Though the way perplex you “All to Him is clear. “Cast your present burden, “Leave your future, too, “Moment —just by moment “He will bring you through.” Name Faculty for Institute Mission Education Movement Sponsoring Session.
