Thinking, praying, reading, studying the Bible – when we do these things, we are reflecting on the Word of God. To reflect is to contemplate and/or consider, and God wants us to deeply reflect on His Word so that we can better understand Him.

Thursday Reflecting

As . . . the feet of the priests who bore the ark dipped in the edge of the water . . . the waters . . . rose in a heap . . . and were cut off; and the people crossed over opposite Jericho. – Joshua 3:15-16.

Keep in fellowship with the Apostle and High Priest of your profession. Consider Him. Look away from all else to Him. Follow Him. It may seem as if He is leading thee into certain destruction; but it shall not be so. When thou comest to the dreaded difficulty, be it what it may, thou wilt find that because His feet have been dipped in its brink, it has dwindled in its flow. Its roar is hushed; its waters are shrunken; its violence is gone. The iron gate stands open. The stone is rolled away from the sepulchre. The river-bed is dry. Jericho is within reach. “They passed over right against Jericho.”
~ F. B. MEYER
