Calvin: the hope that sustains

Saturday, October 3, 2020
    Commemoration of William Morris, Artist, Writer, 1896
    Commemoration of George Kennedy Bell, Bishop of Chichester, Ecumenist, Peacemaker, 1958
Meditation:
    Keep yourselves in God’s love as you wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you to eternal life.
    —Jude 1:21 (NIV)
Quotation:
    But as many things entice us to apostasy, so that it is difficult to keep us faithful to God in the end, [Jude] calls the attention of the faithful to the last day. For the hope of that alone ought to sustain us, so that we may at no time despond; otherwise, we must necessarily fail every moment.
    ... John Calvin (1509-1564), Commentaries on the Catholic Epistles [1551], tr. J. Owen, Edinburgh: Calvin Translation Society, 1855, p. 447 (see the book)
    See also Jude 1:21; Lam. 3:25-26; Matt. 24:42; 2 Tim. 4:8; Tit. 2:12-14; Rev. 22:20
Quiet time reflection:
    Lord, You must lift my eyes to the Cross.

Weil: the appeal to the right people

Friday, October 2, 2020
Meditation:
    For he who was a slave when he was called by the Lord is the Lord’s freedman; similarly, he who was a free man when he was called is Christ’s slave.
    —1 Corinthians 7:22 (NIV)
Quotation:
    The wives of the fishermen were going in procession to make a tour of the ships, carrying candles and singing what must certainly be very ancient hymns of a heart-rending sadness. Nothing can give any idea of it. I have never heard anything so poignant, unless it were the song of the boatmen on the Volga. There the conviction was suddenly borne in upon me that Christianity is pre-eminently the religion of slaves, that slaves cannot help belonging to it, and I among others.
    ... Simone Weil (1909-1943), Waiting for God, Emma Craufurd, tr., Putnam, 1951, p. 67 (see the book)
    See also 1 Cor. 7:20-23; Rom. 8:15; Phil. 4:22; Phlmn. 1:15-16
Quiet time reflection:
    Lord, Your voice has called us out of our slavery.

Therese of Lisieux: 'tis Mary's part

Thursday, October 1, 2020
    Commemoration of Remigius, Bishop of Rheims, Apostle of the Franks, 533
    Commemoration of Thérèse of Lisieux, Carmelite Nun, Spiritual Writer, 1897
Meditation:
    Then Mary took about a pint of pure nard, an expensive perfume; she poured it on Jesus’ feet and wiped his feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.
    —John 12:3 (NIV)
Quotation:
To live of love, ’tis Mary’s part to share,
    To bathe with tears and odorous perfume
Thy holy feet, to wipe them with my hair,
    To kiss them; then still loftier lot assume,—
To rise, and by Thy side to take my place,
    And pour my ointments on Thy holy head.
But with no balsams I embalm Thy Face!
        ’Tis love, instead!
    ... Thérèse of Lisieux (1873-1897), Poems of St. Teresa, Carmelite of Lisieux, Boston, Angel Guardian Press, 1907, “To Live of Love”, n. 12 (see the book)
    See also John 12:3-8; Matt. 26:6-13; Mark 14:3-9; Luke 7:37-38; 23:55-24:1

    Lord, enlarge my heart so that I may love You.

Saphir: believing the future as well as the past

Wednesday, September 30, 2020
Meditation:
    [Jesus:] “Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.”
    —John 14:1-4 (KJV)
Quotation:
    What think ye, is the Word of God to be fulfilled? Do you believe the Word of God? Do you believe what is fulfilled in the Word of God because it is fulfilled? or do you believe because God has said so? If you believe the past fulfillment because it is past, then you do not believe God. If you believe God, you must believe the future as well as the past.
    ... Adolph Saphir (1831-1891), Christ and Israel, London: Morgan and Scott, 1911, p. 129 (see the book)
    See also John 14:1-4; Ps. 27:1-3; 37:33; 1 Cor. 1:9; Tit. 1:2
Quiet time reflection:
    Lord, You have spoken.

Law: all places are holy

Tuesday, September 29, 2020
    Feast of Michael & All Angels
Meditation:
    He who regards one day as special, does so to the Lord. He who eats meat, eats to the Lord, for he gives thanks to God; and he who abstains, does so to the Lord and gives thanks to God. For none of us lives to himself alone and none of us dies to himself alone. If we live, we live to the Lord; and if we die, we die to the Lord. So, whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord.
    —Romans 14:6-8 (NIV)
Quotation:
    As a good Christian should consider every place as holy, because God is there, so he should look upon every part of his life as a matter of holiness, because it is to be offered unto God.
    The profession of a clergyman is a holy profession, because it is a ministration in holy things, an attendance at the altar. But worldly business is to be made holy unto the Lord, by being done as a service unto Him, and in conformity to His Divine will.
    ... William Law (1686-1761), A Serious Call to a Devout and Holy Life [1728], London: Methuen, 1899, p. 46 (see the book)
    See also Rom. 14:6-8; Ex. 3:1,2; Phil. 2:14,15; Col. 3:3
Quiet time reflection:
    Lord, sanctify the labor of my hands.

Ryle: world understands humility and love

Monday, September 28, 2020
Meditation:
    To keep me from becoming conceited because of these surpassingly great revelations, there was given me a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me. Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.
    —2 Corinthians 12:7-9 (NIV)
Quotation:
    Humility and love are precisely the graces which the men of the world can understand, if they do not comprehend doctrines. They are the graces about which there is no mystery, and they are within reach of all classes. The poorest... Christian can every day find occasion for practicing love and humility.
    ... J. C. Ryle (1816-1900), Expository thoughts on the Gospels, with the text complete, St. John, v. III, London: William Hunt, 1873, p. 16 (see the book)
    See also 2 Cor. 12:7-9; Matt. 5:16; Rom. 3:12; 1 Cor. 13:4-7; Gal. 5:22-23; 1 Pet. 3:4
Quiet time reflection:
    Lord, grant me the humility that I lack.

Pierce: in the midst of suffering

Sunday, September 27, 2020
    Feast of Vincent de Paul, Founder of the Congregation of the Mission (Lazarists), 1660
Meditation:
Bless the LORD, O my soul:
    and all that is within me, bless his holy name.
Bless the LORD, O my soul,
    and forget not all his benefits:
Who forgiveth all thine iniquities;
    who healeth all thy diseases;
Who redeemeth thy life from destruction;
    who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;
Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things;
    so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
    —Psalm 103:1-5 (KJV)
Quotation:
    Jesus Christ can so interfere in a human life that it can look up and say, “Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits,” even in the midst of sorrow or suffering.
    ... Robert Pierce (1914-1978), founder and president, World Vision, in a private communication from World Vision
    See also Ps. 103:1-5; 146:1-3; Luke 1:46-47
Quiet time reflection:
    Lord, You have granted me the ultimate hope.
