C. S. Lewis, In The Great Divorce, he wrote that in the end
there are only two possibilities for each of us. We can either
say to God, “Thy Will Be Done”, or else God will ultimately say
to us, “Thy will be done” ; “There is a canyon of difference
between doing your best to glorify God and doing whatever it
takes to glorify yourself. The quest for excellence is a mark of
maturity. The quest for power is childish,” Max Lucado.

SCRIPTURAL Reflection Group meets on Fridays at 8pm.
WORK is good therapy. —–. The Church knows it’s true. We are
all called to hold the unemployed and the underemployed in our
hearts as we pray for work security.There is a dignity in work.
It can get us out of ourselves. It restores hope, gets us
dreaming again. It makes us sleep better at night. It gives us a
reason to get up. It helps us to pay the bills. It reminds us
that we are still alive. It gets us through to another job, a
better job. It helps us to pinpoint our strengths. It can even
become a prayer. Denise Bossert
