Fisher: wise about life

Wednesday, September 16, 2020
    Feast of Cyprian, Bishop of Carthage, Martyr, 258
    Commemoration of Ninian, Bishop of Galloway, Apostle to the Picts, c. 430
    Commemoration of Edward Bouverie Pusey, Priest, tractarian, 1882
Meditation:
    “Still other seed fell on good soil. It came up and yielded a crop, a hundred times more than was sown.” When he said this, he called out, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”
    —Luke 8:8 (NIV)
Quotation:
    If we would only give, just once, the same amount of reflection to what we want to get out of life, that we give to the question of what to do with two weeks’ vacation, we would be startled at our false standards and the aimless procession of our busy days.
    ... Dorothy Canfield Fisher (1879-1958) (see the book)
    See also Luke 8:8; Matt. 3:8; 7:16-20; John 15:1-2
Quiet time reflection:
    Lord, may my life bear fruit for You.
