Good morning, everyone. Isn’t it wonderful that we are all part of the body of Christ? Now if we could just learn to treat one another with love and respect, as Christ treats us. Lord, open my eyes to see my brothers and sisters in Christ as beloved family. Even if they disagree with meContinue reading “The Body of Christ”

Working with My Hands

Here’s your Tuesday food for thought. Have a wonderful day! We are all poor sinners and unworthy even to mention your name, and so we beg our Lord Jesus Christ, your beloved Son, in whom you are well pleased, and the Holy Spirit, to give you thanks for everything. ~St. Francis of Assisi
