Coleridge: Sunshine let it be, or frost

Tuesday, June 6, 2017
    Commemoration of Ini Kopuria, Founder of the Melanesian Brotherhood, 1945
Meditation:
    He said to his disciples, “Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?”
    —Mark 4:40 (NIV)
Quotation:
Sunshine let it be, or frost,
    Storm or calm, as Thou shalt choose;
Though Thine every gift were lost,
    Thee Thyself we could not lose.
    ... Mary Elizabeth Coleridge (1861-1907), Poems, London: Elkin Mathews, 1908, p. 172 (see the book)
    See also Mark 4:40; Matt. 10:39; Mark 8:35; Luke 9:24; John 6:39; Acts 20;24; Rom. 8:18; Phil. 3:7-9
Quiet time reflection:
    Your faithfulness drives out my fear. CQOD    Blog    email    RSS
