What Faith Makes Possible (January 17)
By faith, we seek to please God because we love Him. It is faith that gives wings to love’s natural desire. Showing us not only that God can be pleased but how we may do so, faith gives true substance to love’s highest wish: the pleasure of our beloved God.
Admiration (January 17)
We inhabit a universe full of good things to admire. If we want to be powered by a great love for good things, there is no shortage of such things around us every day. And many of these come in the form of people. Let’s admire all that is truly admirable!
Where Self-Discipline Comes From (January 17)
We find the strength to say “No” only when we have a more powerful “Yes” burning within us. Like Jesus, who “for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross,” we must endure our own crosses as they come to us. The “joy set before us” is the key.
Humaneness (January 16)
Humaneness refers to the treatment of others in a “human” way. The willingness to do this usually comes from our having experienced enough failure and sorrow that we’re able to empathize and treat them humanely despite their misjudgments and mistakes.
