“Whether you believe in God or not-God, however, gifts come first. We would not even exist without them. We are all beneficiaries….Gifts bring forth gratitude, and we express our appreciation by passing gifts on to others. When we share gifts, we become benefactors toward the well-being of all.” ~~Diana Butler Bass, from Grateful Scripture: I Thessalonians 5:16-19 Let Our Soul Breathe Hope — John Philip Newell

“If the only prayer you say in your entire life is ‘Thank you,’ that would suffice.” --Meister Eckhart Scripture: Mark 13:1-8 Small Prayer in a Hard Wind—Christian Wiman “Officially, the New Testament church at an early stage took seriously their responsibility for widows who lacked family or other resources. The office of deacon was instituted initially to address this pressing need.”
― Carolyn Custis James, The Gospel of Ruth: Loving God Enough to Break the Rules Scripture Readings: 1 Kings 17: 8-16 Mark 12: 38-44 |
