Feast of the Naming & Circumcision of Jesus
Meditation:
And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.
—Colossians 3:17 (NIV)
Quotation:
I am disposed to say grace upon twenty other occasions in the course of the day besides my dinner. I want a form for setting out upon a pleasant walk, for a moonlight ramble, for a friendly meeting, or a solved problem. Why have we none for books, those spiritual repasts—a grace before Milton—a grace before Shakespeare—a devotional exercise proper to be said before reading [Spenser]?
… Charles Lamb (1775-1834), The Essays of Elia, E. Moxon, 1840, p. 59 (see the book)
See also Col. 3:17; Matt. 15:36; Luke 22:19-20; Rom. 8:13; Gal. 5:24; Eph. 5:19-20
Quiet time reflection:
Lord, may my whole life be as a prayer to You. CQOD Blog email RSS
