CQOD: 05/19/06 -- Patmore: seeing my sin

Christian Quotation of the Day

May 19, 2006

Feast of Dunstan, Archbishop of Canterbury, 988

Meditation:
    If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his word has no place in our lives.
    -- 1 John 1:9-10 (NIV)

---

Quotation:
    We must confess our sins in order to obtain pardon; but we must see our sins in order to confess. How few of those who think that they have confessed and been pardoned have ever seen their sin!
    ... Coventry Patmore (1823-1896)

---

Quiet time reflection:
    Lord, help me, for I cannot bear to look at my sin.
