| Aaron and Mom at wedding |
Since last Sunday, I’ve been pondering Pastor Blake Lasater’s question concerning how we spend our time, money, thoughts. It seems there are too many good causes I want to help advance. Some of these activities are beyond my physical capabilities at this time; others, I would need cash to help — i.e., Heifer International. But sometimes I find things which are a perfect fit. For instance, I can help our humane society, and farmers’ market, and a few spiritual and environmental focuses, by helping them reach others by way of social media. Or for political causes, I can write letters to the editor, call senators and representatives, and entreat others to do the physical work I cannot. Even if we feel helpless, let’s never lose hope. A simple word to a person can make all the difference — and we may never know it did. As you see from the accompanying photo at my son's wedding, I'll do whatever I can -- and you can, too!!
"This scientific sense of being, forsaking matter for Spirit, by no means suggests man's absorption into Deity and the loss of his identity, but confers upon man enlarged individuality, a wider sphere of thought and action, a more expansive love, a higher and more permanent peace." Mary Baker Eddy
