Laubach: the bright discovery

Sunday, November 17, 2024
    Feast of Hugh, Carthusian Monk, Bishop of Lincoln, 1200
Meditation:
    For [God] says, “In the time of my favor I heard you, and in the day of salvation I helped you.” I tell you, now is the time of God’s favor, now is the day of salvation.
    —2 Corinthians 6:2 (NIV)
Quotation:
    All day I see souls dead to God look sadly out of hungry eyes. I want them to know my discovery! That any minute can be paradise, that any place can be heaven! That any man can have God! That every man does have God the moment he speaks to God, or listens for him!
    ... Frank C. Laubach (1884-1970), Letters by a Modern Mystic: excerpts, Student Volunteer Movement, 1937, p. 24 (see the book)
