Sister Ruth Burrows
Look at Jesus himself, look at him above all on the cross. The act which affected the union of all mankind with God was wrought when Jesus himself had been brought to nothing. How easily spiritual persons move away from him! We draw our ideas of how the spiritual life should be from this writer or that, this school of thought or that, but do not fix our eyes on the supreme Master. We could not fail to find and choose the straight road leading to life if we but kept our eyes on him.
