Thoughts

The trust to which God calls us is not a timid trust. It is a bold, courageous trust that is written large so that even a passing runner can read it. It is a deep and hearty trust, one that leads us ever closer to God.

Thoughts for November 7

Make me worthy, Lord, to serve you and all the world’s people who live and die in loneliness, hunger, poverty, and sickness. Give them through my hands this day their daily bread, and by my love, give them peace and joy.

Thoughts for Nov. 1

May I see today

the largeness of your love

in even the smallest part of creation.

May I be ravished

by traces of your beauty

in earth and sky.

May I experience

the eternity of your grace

pulsing within each moment.

Thought of the Week

Somewhere each day we have to fall in love,
with someone, something, some moment,
event, phrase, word, or sight.
Somehow each day we must allow the softening of the heart.
Otherwise our hearts will move evitably toward hardness.
We will showly become cynical without even knowing it -
that's where too much of the world is trapped.

- - Richard Rohr
