CQOD: 02/02/06 -- Pierce: in the midst of suffering

Christian Quotation of the Day

February 2, 2006

THE PRESENTATION OF CHRIST IN THE TEMPLE

Meditation:
    Bless the LORD, O my soul,
        and all that is within me,
        bless his holy name!
    Bless the LORD, O my soul,
        and forget not all his benefits,
    who forgives all your iniquity,
        who heals all your diseases,
    who redeems your life from the pit,
        who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy,
    who satisfies you with good
        so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's.
    -- Psalm 103:1-5 (ESV)

Quotation:
    Jesus Christ can so interfere in a human life that it can look up and say, “Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits,” even in the midst of sorrow or suffering.
    ... Bob Pierce, founder and president, World Vision

Quiet time reflection:
    Lord, only You can give me the grace to bless You in suffering.
