I show my gratitude by thanking those who help me. Part of expressing gratitude is returning the favor to others who have come to my aid as much as I can. Being a good person can be a way to express the gifts and talents you have been given. Gratitude is something you focus in on to be a more complete person. Always be willing to serve as you are being served. Loving one another and having a good attitude is a good thing to practice too.
Some seek ascension, some seek redemption.
A friend posted this on Facebook. Like most things, what your monitor setup says about you. For me, I’m neutral good at work and chaotic good at home. Of course, it’s what you can afford and what is provided for you that has the final say.
This angel statue is on display at church and I found it to be inspirational. Angels are always around us. Some we see and others we don’t.
Today is a day we recognize the resurrection of Jesus, as we have done in years past. However, in light of all the chaos we are seeing in the world, perhaps it’s necessary to be mindful that extravagant and sacrificial love that was shown three days earlier was for everyone, everywhere, throughout time and memorial.
Jesus was about liberation, love, and life everlasting. Jesus was about liberation, love, and life everlasting. He also lived for and loved the immigrant, the LGBTQ person, the person working two jobs to make ends meet, the veteran with scars we cannot see, the visitors, the huddled masses yearning for freedom, the sick, the widow, the orphan, the student, and many more.
I believe that the power of Jesus is about the power of love born from sacrifice and death, which no longer has sting. It’s never been about power or privilege, it’s always about loving our neighbors as ourselves and doing it the best we can as long as we can.
It’s time once again to move your clocks ahead one hour because we return to Daylight Saving Time. I hate this time of year because of the loss of sleep and how it makes me feel for a few days later. Also, the changes in light and dark parts of the day can be annoying.
