The Contrite Soul Must Look Away from Self
Isaiah 45:22
Look to me, and be you saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else.


Passing through a graveyard with her parents, a little girl drew them after her to look at a beautiful stone figure of the Christ, with a face full of suffering and yet of tenderest pity, leaning upon a massive marble cross. As they paused to look, she held her head down and said in a low voice, "I can hardly lift up my eyes to look at Him, I have done so many wrong things." It is just because we have done so many "wrong things" that we have need to lift up our eyes to look at Him.

(Quiver.)
