CQOD: 01/22/06 -- Hammarskjöld: the everyday commitment

Christian Quotation of the Day

January 22, 2006Meditation:
    Brothers, join in imitating me, and keep your eyes on those who walk according to the example you have in us.
    -- Philippians 3:17 (ESV)

---

Quotation:
    The “great commitment” is so much easier than the ordinary, everyday one—and can all too easily shut our hearts to the latter. A willingness to make the ultimate sacrifice can be associated with, and even produce, a great hardness of heart.
    ... Dag Hammarskjöld (1905-1961), Markings, p. 131 [1964]

---

Quiet time reflection:
    Lord, open my eyes to the small services You call me to do.
