Meditation for June 10th


Revelation 1:1-3 (New International Version) (St. Johnon the Isle of Patmos - Cathedral Church of St. Anne, Belfast)

"The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show his servants what must soon take place. He made it known by sending his angel to his servant John, who testifies to everything he saw—that is, the word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ. Blessed is the one who reads the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear it and take to heart what is written in it, because the time is near."

Fear imprisons, faith liberates;
fear paralyzes, faith empowers;
fear disheartens, faith encourages;
fear sickens, faith heals;
fear makes useless, faith makes serviceable.

~Rev. Dr. Harry Emerson Fosdick~

Faith doesn't wait until it understands; in that case it wouldn't be faith. ~Enrich Fromm~

Faith is like radar that sees through the fog - the reality of things at a distance that the human eye cannot see. ~Corrie Ten Boom~
