CQOD: 07/15/06 -- de Caussade: personal surrender

Christian Quotation of the Day

July 15, 2006

Commemoration of Swithun, Bishop of Winchester, c.862
Commemoration of Bonaventure, Franciscan Friar, Bishop, Peacemaker, 1274

Meditation:
    Therefore do not be anxious, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
    -- Matthew 6:31-33 (ESV)

Quotation:
    Since God offers to manage our affairs for us, let us once and for all hand them over to His infinite wisdom, in order to occupy ourselves only with Himself and what belongs to Him.
    ... J. P. de Caussade (1675-1751)

Quiet time reflection:
    Lord, I yield my cares to You, trusting in Your goodness.
