Greetings!
I was already in bed and then it dawned on me -- I forgot to blog!!!
So I am back up -- blogging with you and checking out the Monday Night Football game...
From Nouwen: "Christian community is the place where we keep the flame of hope alive among us and take it seriously so that it can grow and become stronger in us. In this way we can live with courage, trusting that there is a spiritual power in us when we are together that allows us to live us to live in this world without surrendering to the powerful forces constantly seducing us toward despair. That is how we dare to say that God is a God of love when we see hatred all around us. That is why we can claim that God is a God of life even when we see death and destruction and agony all around us. We say it together. We affirm it in each other. Waiting together, nurturing what has already begun, expecting its fulfillment -- that is the meaning of marriage, friendship and the Christian life..."
We are better because we are walking TOGETHER...
Off to bed...
