Excerpt from Life Lines by Forrest Church. 1996
Meaning doesn't emerge from longing for what we lack, things we have lost or will likely never find. The past is over. Pine over it and what we are pining for is probably very different in selective memory than it was in reality. And longing for something in the future may distract us from our enjoyment of the present. Wishful thinking tends to be both sloppy and sentimental. We should wish to think instead for things closer at hand.
The courage to bear up under pain;
I call this "thoughtful wishing"; wishing for what can be ours, what we can do, who we can be. Unlike wishful thoughts, thoughtful wishes tend to come true. Forrest Church

"So you begin...I begin. I picked up one person - maybe if I didn't pick up that one person I wouldn't have picked up 42,000. The whole work is only a drop in the ocean. But if I didn't put the drop in, the ocean would be one drop less. Same thing for you, same thing for your family, same thing in the church where you go. Just begin...one, one, one." Mother Teresa

Yes, God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not be lost but may have eternal life. For God sent his Son into the world not to condemn the world, but so that through him the world might be saved. John 3:16-17
Think of some very humble and ordinary form of
making, like the sewing of a patch on a coat. You can regard it as drudgery, and
do it with careless or perhaps with savage impatience; and then you turn it into
a job. Or you can regard the
patch very differently. You can do it with pride in
your workmanship, so that it becomes a thing of beauty; then you are already an
artist. You can do it with love, and so turn it into love-making; and then you
are twice an artist. You can do it as act of worship of God and then you are
three times an artist; you are completely alive. And why should not every action
that you do be like this? But we are enslaved by a system that despises art and
has no room for love and reverence; and so we can be excused if we think
sometimes that "the end draws near; the soil is stale." Unless there
can be a rebirth our world is doomed; and it must be a rebirth of reverence.

To pray for peace is to pray for justice, for a right ordering of relations within and among nations and peoples. It is to pray for freedom, especially for religious freedom that is a basic human and civil right of every individual. To pray for peace is to seek God's forgiveness and to implore the courage to forgive those who have trespassed against us. - Pope John Paul ll World Day of Peace Message 2002 -
