The world wonders when it sees the man who can so unexpectedly draw large and unsuspected sums of money from his bank for some emergency. But what the world has not seen are the countless small sums paid into that bank, earned by faithful work over a long time. And so is the bank of the spirit. The world sees the man of faith make a sudden demand on God’s stores of power and the demand is met. The world does not see what the man has been putting in, in thanks and praise, in prayer and communion, in small good deeds done, faithfully, steadily over the years. Prayer for the Day
