MEDITATION:
Written by A. W. Tozer (1897-1963) an American pastor, author, magazine editor, and spiritual mentor. This is an excerpt from his book “Born After Midnight.”
To God quality is vastly important and size matters little. When set in opposition to size, quality is everything and size nothing…Man’s moral fall has clouded his vision, confused his thinking and rendered him subject to delusion. One evidence of this is his all but incurable proneness to confuse values and put size before quality in his appraisal of things. The Christian faith reverses this order, but even Christians tend to judge things by the old Adamic rule. How big? how much? and, how many? are the questions oftenest asked by religious persons when trying to evaluate Christian things…The Church is dedicated to things that matter. Quality matters. Let’s not be led astray by the size of things.
PRAYER:
This prayer is from the Mozarabic Rite, a liturgical rite of the Latin Church once used generally in the Iberian Peninsula (Hispania), in what is now Spain and Portugal. Developed during Visigoth rule of the Iberian Peninsula in the 500s AD.
Make us, O Lord, to flourish like pure lilies in the courts of Thine house, and to show forth to the faithful the fragrance of good words, and the example of a Godly life, through Thy mercy and grace. Amen.
