Old Lutheran Quote of the Day

May a blessed resurrection also follow a blessed death. In that day of severe judgment, exempt me from a harsh word, You who have protected me with Your assistance. May my sins remain hidden by the umbrella of Your grace and be cast into the depths of the sea. May my soul be bound up in the bundle of the living God so with all the elect I may reach the eternal fellowship of joy. -- Johann Gerhard, *Meditations on Divine Mercy* p. 127
