Awake!
For Christians the
beginning of the day should not be burdened and haunted by the various
concerns they face during the working day. The Lord stands above the
new day, for God has made it. All the darkness and confusion of the
night with its dreams gives way to the clear light of Jesus Christ and
his awakening Word. All restlessness, all impurity, all worry and
anxiety flee before him. Therefore, in the early morning hours of the
day may our many thoughts and our many idle words be silent, and may the
first thought and the first word belong to the one to whom our whole
life belongs. “Sleeper, awake! Rise from the dead, and Christ will
shine on you.” (Eph. 5:14)
Dietrich
Bonhoeffer from “Life Together” |
