I work for a blood bank and it’s the season of Lent. So I am donating blood for Lent as a practice of helping others as I work my way through the 40 days until Easter.

Ash Wednesday – Lent Has Begun #Lent
Remember that you are dust, and dust you shall return. 40 days of spiritual practices, examination and reflection have begun this day.
Caring For Creation
My church hosted a seminar on the environment and faith; the two should be closely linked. Being a good steward of the gifts of mother Earth is the right thing to do.
It requires using our hearts, minds, and spirit to do something for this creation of nature we have been given. It’s essential to do things such as recycling, conserving energy (yes I am not always good at that), and extending the life of the things I use to make life easier.
As a believer, I am glad to do these things because it’s a way of showing how much I want this planet to be there for future generations. Love your neighbor as yourself extends to being concerned for the environment. Caring for creation is a statement of faith.

Know you are loved and beloved.
The Sixth Night Of #Hanukkah
Six nights are in the books. The more light the more we see G-d. This is one of the great miracles of this celebration.
Night Five Of #Hanukkah
As a non-Jewish person I find Hanukkah to be a celebration that requires dedication. It’s interesting that the miracle of the lights is a great story of spiritual illumination as more candles are lit in the menorah.
