CQOD: 02/22/06 -- Short: the testimony of witnesses

Christian Quotation of the Day

February 22, 2006
Meditation:
    May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope.
    -- Romans 15:13 (ESV)

Quotation:
    The New Testament is an intensely personal document. It is not the effort of a group of men who are out to prove something to us by the force of their rational arguments. But it is the testimony, or testament, of a group of witnesses... who are bent on simply reporting to us the experience of a love that overtook them and overwhelmed them, a peace that passed all their understanding, and a peace that they in turn would pass on to us.
    ... Robert L. Short (b.1932)

Quiet time reflection:
    Lord, I receive Your Testament.
