CQOD: 08/03/06 -- Law: the minimum Christian life

Christian Quotation of the Day

August 3, 2006Meditation:
    Since therefore Christ suffered in the flesh, arm yourselves with the same way of thinking, for whoever has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin, so as to live for the rest of the time in the flesh no longer for human passions but for the will of God.
    -- 1 Peter 4:1-2 (ESV)

---

Quotation:
    If our common life is not a common course of humility, self-denial, renunciation of the world, poverty of spirit, and heavenly affection, we do not live the lives of Christians.
    ... William Law (1686-1761), A Serious Call to a Devout and Holy Life [1728]

Quiet time reflection:
    Lord, my life does not live up to Your word. Forgive me, I pray, and grant me new grace and strength to amend my life.
