Ending

The month ends today. We have had thirty-one days to journey toward God in which we have passed through some picturesque moments of faith, hope, love; we have seen the extreme discomfort of others grieving, in Haiti. We have questions about life and death, being human, and the solution is not easy when there are only thirty-one days to examine, prioritize, negotiate, compromise.


As Christians we can observe every moment of life, and then offer up the experience to God in prayer. We do not have to become unhappy bitter refugees from life, from heartache. We must remember that life will always involve a little suffering. We all will be wounded, will be asked to make a sacrifice. Hope and love will protect uss.


Each day we must learn humility, obedience, charity. We must learn from our temptations to avoid them, and to help others avoid them.


Splendid winter weather.
