Brooks: what Jesus would do

Meditation:
    Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God.
    —Matthew 5:9 (NIV)
Quotation:
    The wonder of the life of Jesus is this—and you will find it so and you have found it so if you have ever taken your New Testament and tried to make it the rule of your daily life—that there is not a single action that you are called upon to do of which you need be, of which you will be, in any serious doubt for ten minutes as to what Jesus Christ, if He were here, Jesus Christ being here, would have you do under those circumstances and with the materials upon which you are called to act.
    ... Phillips Brooks (1835-1893), Addresses, Philadelphia: Henry Altemus, 1895, p. 126 (see the book)
Quiet time reflection:
    Lord, grant that I may know more of the mind of Jesus. CQOD    Blog    email    RSS
