Meditation of the Day – As the Heart Turns
“And it is only by the observance of the first and greatest commandment that we can keep the second. The more we love God, the more we shall love man; the less we love God, the less we shall, in the true sense of the word, love man. Our love will become capricious, fitful, and unreliable—not charity, but passion. If you feel that your love for your fellowman is dying out in the fumes of selfishness, there is but one way to revive it: strive for, pray for, the love of God. As the heart turns toward its source, it will be quickened and expanded. There is no true, no lasting spirit of charity apart from the practice of religion. Therefore, we cannot keep those commandments which teach us our duty to men unless we are keeping those which teach us our duty to God.”— Fr. Basil W. Maturin, p. 160
The Bible in a Year – Day 129 – David Commits Adultery
Fr. Mike breaks down David’s tragic downfall as he commits adultery with Bathsheba and kills her husband, Uriah the Hittite. We learn that David’s road to grave sin began with small acts of disobedience and selfishness. Today’s readings are 2 Samuel 11, 1 Chronicles 14-15, and Psalm 32.
