My Daily Meditation For The Circling Year by John Henry Jowett

JUNE The Seventh MORAL SURGERY

GALATIANS vi.1-8.

This is a surgical operation in the realm of the soul. A man has been |overtaken in a fault,| some evil passion has pounced upon him, and he is broken. Some holy relationship has been snapped, and he is crippled in his moral and spiritual goings. Perhaps his affections have been broken, or his conscience, or his will. Or perhaps he has lost his glorious hope or the confidence of his faith. Here he is, a broken man, the victim of his own broken vows, lame and halt in the pilgrim-way! And some surgeon is needed to re-set the dislocation, and to make him whole again.

And who is to be the surgeon? |Ye which are spiritual restore such a one.| The men who live under the control of God's Spirit are to be the surgeons for broken hearts and souls. When a man has fallen by reason of sin, the Christian is to be a Good Samaritan, seeking to restore the cripple to health and strength again. We are to kneel and minister to him, binding up his wounds, giving him the balm and cordial of oil and wine.

And what is to be the spirit of the surgeon? |The spirit of meekness.| We are not to be supercilious, for the |touch| of pride is never the minister of healing. We are to heal as though some day we may need to be healed.
