CQOD: 12/01/06 -- Tozer: the gaze of faith

Christian Quotation of the Day

December 1, 2006

Commemoration of Charles de Foucauld, Hermit, Servant of the Poor, 1916

Meditation:
    So Jesus said to them, "When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am he, and that I do nothing on my own authority, but speak just as the Father taught me. And he who sent me is with me. He has not left me alone, for I always do the things that are pleasing to him."
    -- John 8:28-29 (ESV)

Quotation:
    If faith is the gaze of the heart at God, and if this gaze is but the raising of the inward eyes to meet the all-seeing eyes of God, then it follows that it is one of the easiest things possible to do.
    ... A. W. Tozer (1897-1963), The Pursuit of God [1948]
