“One secret to a sweet and happy Christian life, is learning to live by the day…_ Any one can carry his burden, however heavy, till nightfall._ Any one can do her work, however hard, for one day._ Anyone can live sweetly, patiently, lovingly, purely, until the sun goes down._ And this is all life ever means to us - just one little day._ Do the days duty, fight the days temptations, and do not weaken or distract yourself by looking forward to things you cannot see, and cannot understand._ God gives us night, to shut down our little days._ We cannot see beyond._ Short horizons make life easier, and give us one of the blessed secrets of brave holy living.”
-Fr. Lasance, My Prayer Book, p.51. _
