"Behold the man!" - John 19:5
We have only to sit more continually at the cross foot to be less troubled with our doubts and woes. We have but to see his sorrows, and our sorrows we shall be ashamed to mention. We have but to gaze into his wounds and heal our own. If we would live aright it must be by the contemplation of his death; if we would rise to dignity, it must be by considering his humiliation and his sorrow.
(Morning & Evening July 22)Dear Father, may Christ and his cross fill more of my view. More of you and less of me.
