Christ Meditation

In his revised devotional work, Kris Lundgaard invites us to forsake unfulfilling idols and set our hearts on adoring Christ instead.

How to increase your Christ consciousness through meditations

TO walk and talk with God, as child with father, friend with friend; lifting up life into the light of His love—this is religion. Instead of criticism of it, commentary upon it, controversy over it, philosophy about it, exhortation to it, of which the world is full, this little book offers religion itself, just as one would offer a picture, a story or a song. Real religion is the offering up of each man’s life, in its concrete setting, day by day, hour by hour, moment by moment, to the guidance and keeping of God. Thus each man’s religion, like his life, is individual, unique. Midway ...

“YE ARE THE SALT OP THE EARTH: BUT IF THE SALT HAVE LOST HIS SAVOUR, WHEREWITH SHALL IT BE SALTED? IT IS THENCEFORTH GOOD POR NOTHING, BUT TO BE CAST OUT, AND TO BE TRODDEN UNDER FOOT OP MEN.” The words which we have before us naturally and most conveniently suggest a threefold division of the subject.

And then, thirdly, a doom; such savourless salt shall “be cast...

"WHAT does God do all day?" once asked a little boy. One could wish that more grown-up people would ask so very real a question.

It no more occurs to us that God is engaged in any particular work in the world than it occurs to a little child that its father does anything except be its father. Its father may be a Cabinet Minister absorbed in the nation's work, or an inventor deep in schemes for the world's good; but to this master-egoist he is father, and nothing more. Childhood, whether...
