“A spirituality that is only private and self-absorbed, one devoid of an authentic political and social consciousness, does little to halt the suicidal juggernaut of history. On the other hand, an activism that is not purified by profound spiritual and psychological self-awareness and rooted in divine truth, wisdom, and compassion will only perpetuate the problem it is trying to solve, however righteous its intentions. When, however, the deepest and most grounded spiritual vision is married to a practical and pragmatic drive to transform all existing political, economic and social institutions, a holy force—the power of wisdom and love in action—is born. This force I define as Sacred Activism.”

“I want too much, she thought. I want everything. I want day and night, sleeping and waking, world without end, amen. Someone warned her once that it was fatal to tell a man you loved him. ‘What I really want,’ she said, ‘deep down, is stillness, safety. The feeling you’d always be there. I love you. I think I must have loved you without knowing it all my life.’”

— Daphne Du Maurier, Don’t Look Now & Other Stories (via the-book-diaries)

Devotional for July 4

“No one who lives in him keeps on sinning. No one who continues to sin has either seen him or known him.” - 1 John 3:6

What becomes of our old nature when we are sanctified? Many people are unduly concerned to know if it can be killed outright and seem to desire a sort of certificate of its death and burial. It is enough to know that it is outside and Christ is in us. It may show itself again, and even knock at the door and plead for admittance, but it is forever outside while we abide in Him. Should we step out of Him and into sin we might find the old corpse in the ghastly cemetery, and its foul aroma might yet embrace and overcome us once more. But he that abideth in him sinneth not and cannot sin while he so abides.

Let us therefore abide and let us not be anxious to escape the hold of eternal vigilance and ceaseless abiding. Our paths are made and we are given strength to pursue them; let us then walk in them. God has provided for us a full sanctification. Since He has given us His own holiness, is it strange that he should require us to be holy, even as He is holy? Let us then put on our beautiful garments and prepare to walk in white with Him.

Birthday

A new day dawns Not quite an ordinary day Though it has followed the day before Precedes the day after The day of one’s birth is a momentous event A whole life to be lived Dreams to be realised Relationships to build A life lived is an individual’s decision Some of which is thrust upon one by the choices made The moments of hesitation and indecisiveness Times we held our own selves back As we age birthdays become times of reflection Of the events of our life which are coloured by the people we have encountered The day may be filled with joy or tinged with sadness The old adage remains true we must remain our own priority Only we can truly determine our own state of happiness Even on the anniversary of our birth.
