"It would be well to spend a thoughtful hour each day reviewing the life of Christ from the manger to Calvary. We should take
it point by point, and let the imagination vividly grasp each scene, especially the closing ones of his earthly life. By thus contemplating his teachings and sufferings, and the infinite sacrifice made by him
for the redemption of the race, we may strengthen our faith, quicken our love, and become more deeply imbued with the spirit which sustained our Saviour. If we
would be saved at last, we must learn the lesson of penitence and faith at the foot of the cross." Ellen White,
Gospel Workers (1892), p. 246.
To be completely honest, I don't often do this because I feel like I'm not doing it correctly, or like I don't have enough energy for other spiritual reading by the time I finish. Sometimes, however, I do try. I tried recently, and thought of many things. I don't want to lose them, so I'm going to endeavor to share them with you in a series of posts entitled
Thoughts from the Hour. I hope you are blessed in some way by them.
Sincerely,
Jean
