CQOD: 04/06/07 -- Dürer: prayer to the Shepherd

Christian Quotation of the Day

April 6, 2007

Good FridayCommemoration of Albrecht Dürer, artist, 1528, and Michelangelo Buonarrotti, artist, spiritual writer, 1564

Meditation:
    I am the good shepherd. I know my own and my own know me, just as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I lay down my life for the sheep. And I have other sheep that are not of this fold. I must bring them also, and they will listen to my voice. So there will be one flock, one shepherd.
    -- John 10:14-16 (ESV)

Quotation:
    O God in heaven, have mercy on us! Lord Jesus Christ, intercede for your people, deliver us at the opportune time, preserve in us the true genuine Christian faith, collect your scattered sheep with your voice, your divine Word as Holy Writ calls it. Help us to recognize your voice, help us not to be allured by the madness of the world, so that we may never fall away from you, O Lord Jesus Christ.
    ... Albrecht Dürer (1471-1528)

Quiet time reflection:
    Lord, I hear your voice.
