Kierkegaard: grateful for God

Friday, September 8, 2023
    Commemoration of Søren Kierkegaard, Teacher and Philosopher, 1855
Meditation:
    Speak to one another with psalms, hymns and spiritual songs. Sing and make music in your heart to the Lord, always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
    —Ephesians 5:19-20 (NIV)
Quotation:
    To stand on one leg and prove God’s existence is a very different thing from going on one’s knees and thanking Him.
