 FEBRUARY 4 Our Way to Heaven |
PRAYER. O Lord, by Your Passion and Death, You have made us children of God. Let me keep Your Commandments so that I may one day share Your glory. |
|
IT was the untold sufferings of the Eternal
Word in our nature which has put away
from us the wrath of Him Whose love sent
Him for that very purpose.
Thus, in a most mysterious way, all that is needful for this sinful world, the life of our souls, the regeneration of our nature flow from a fount of blood. A work of blood is our salvation. We must draw near in faith and accept it as the way to heaven. |
