CAST NOT A STONE

Cast not the first stone, my friend,

When someone goes astray;

When a brother slips and falls,

Lift him up instead and pray.

Pass not along the sordid news

Of someone’s sin displayed;

Lift him up and help him stand

Because for him you prayed

~~~~Kay Hoffman~~~

 

DON’T WAIT

Don’t wait to do what should be done

That you have long delayed –

For we are not assured the grace

To live beyond today;

And we cannot return from death

To what we left behind,

To do some deed we should have done

For God or humankind

Don’t wait to speak the words of love

Another waits to hear;

Don’t wait to hug, in warm embrace,

Some heart you hold so dear;

And wait no more to share your wealth

With charities in need

Or beg forgiveness of the Lord

For hidden, sinful deeds

Today is yours to do or say

What you have long delayed –

That should be said – or should be done

Before your judgment Day;

And you, dear heart – just you alone –

Know what you’ve left to do

To better complement your life

Before this day is through

Refugee Crisis

As we go about enjoying this beautiful and peaceful Sunday let us keep those fleeing for their lives in our thoughts. Today I learned that another boat with immigrant sunk off the Greek Island of Lesbos. Fourteen people are feared dead including a five year-old child. Let’s say a word of prayer for them. So much turmoil in the world…if only we as humans had the capacity to love one another, what a difference it would make.

Pope’s Visit

Pope Francis visit to the United States next week will be a historic one.

Many people are waiting with excited anticipation for the Pope’s visit.

Let’s hope that good will prevail and that his visit will be incident free.

Thought for Today

When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hang on a minute longer, never give up then for that is just the time the tide will turn.
