A collection of scriptures with appropriate quotations for every day in the year.

The LORD will give strength unto his people; the LORD will bless his people with peace--Psa. 29: 11.

If you have trials and temptations which you are able to overcome, and which are working out in your character patience, experience, brotherly kindness, sympathy and love, rejoice and offer the prayer of thanksgiving and acknowledgment of Divine mercy and help. If your trials seem heavier than you can bear, and likely to crush you, take the matter to the great Burden-bearer, and ask His help in bearing whatever would do you good, and release from all that would do you no good, but which would injure you—Z '96, 163 (R 2004).

The strength that the Lord gives His people is spiritual, the power of character whereby they are able in every circumstance to do His will. Glorious indeed is this strength! The Word of God, appropriate to our providential surroundings, is the means of its bestowal. The stronger God's people become the more are they blessed with the assurance that gives and increases peace. Like a river which ever increases in depth and breadth as it is joined by other streams, their peace becomes deeper, wider and fuller by God's increasing gifts. Blessed the people that have Jehovah as their God!—P '26, 125.
