@timbriggshere Me too. I was so amazed when I learned his story and read the transcript for the first time. I think we can never know unless we are in that situation but I hope that would be true of me.
Jesus taught that a lack of concern for the poor is not a minor lapse, but reveals that something is seriously wrong with one’s spiritual compass, the heart.
When our Lord stretched forth his hand to heal a leper, there was no evangelistic strategy attached to the act. It was a pure outflow of the divine love into the world, and needed no further justification. Such should be the Church’s deeds of service.
@timbriggshere There's a lurking sadness for me as we reach the one year mark. I grieve gatherings of people, hugs freely given and feeling carefree in the presence of others.
A short thread on Mayo, Tuna Fish, & God's Control.
I hate mayonaise. I always have. I imagine I always will. However, I love Tuna Fish sandwiches. I always have. I imagine I always will. But up until marriage, I never knew how tuna fish was made (I went to public school)..(1/7)
