Sunday Reflection – Worthy Of Grace

Working for justice is an important act of love and peace. It requires a lot of us. Caring for the least fortunate is humanity in practice. There are some who are by society’s standards aren’t desirable but they need grace the most. Everyone makes mistakes and everyone is worthy of forgiveness.

I think compassion is in short supply and we need to generate more of it. My friends may we all be humble and extend arms that embrace those who struggle in life. May the creator be with us all as we live imperfect lives.

People are worthy of grace in abundance no matter who they are. Let’s hope we all learn from our mistakes and seek to be better and do better.

(I believe in what I just said in this post. However, there are some who need to be held accountable for their actions that have done great harm to others. They are worthy of forgiveness too but they also must ask for forgiveness for what they have done.)

Giving Blood On A Sunday

I donated blood today at Church which brings together a couple of worlds of mine. Twice a year we do a blood drive which I organize because it helps those in need. In full disclosure, I work at Blood Assurance which is our regional blood bank that brings a mobile donation unit to the church. We do this as an outreach to our community to provide life-saving blood to patients in the hospitals we serve.

Given A Chance

For something to grow and get better it must be given a chance to do so. We expect so much but become disappointed or disillusioned when something takes longer to develop and change than we hoped for. Patience is indeed a virtue and if we have it then we will see things get better.

Of course, it takes effort and work but results will show themselves in time. Instead of instant gratification let’s do things that will last and of course hope for the best. The payoff is going to be great if you let things play out.

Wordless Wednesday

Thought Of The Day 10112022

Hello friends.

Yesterday was focused on the issues Indigenous people and mental health. I wanted to share a couple of thoughts.

Indigenous people are an important part of the life of a place because they are the connection between humans and the land. The stories they tell are important to the language and traditions of the community.

Mental health is so vital in making people well and whole. Many struggle and should never feel ashamed in asking for help. We are all better knowing our physical and mental health are linked.

We should remember both things daily and to make the world a better place for all people in body, mind and spirit.
