Strength for Today

In a phone call to my Grandmother,
she reminded me that
God only promises strength for today.
I must rest in this and do what I can within this day.

What a wise grandmother you have - a good reminder for us all. Your recent posts are so lovely.

Like you, re: my post today, it broke my and my husband's hearts to see that lovely old church turned into an event center, gifts piled by the altar as everyone walked across...I was struck to see the iconic stained glass windows, Christ and Mary looking down on the party and dancing - but I am also glad that the beautiful building still stands.

Sending a prayer your way.

K - Thank you from my heart. This means a lot from you.

Yes, RE your post - we feel the same. And what a blessing that the Saints are still there...
