Potential

Once I saw a Peanuts cartoon where Charlie Brown the end frame said. There's no greater burden than a great potential.

When I've been to the services at Grandfield and Temple you see these young people with potential. What they will do with that potential ...that's up to them. Many of them have great support to reach that potential and others are more on their own.

What can we do as faithful people to encourage everyone we meet, everyone we are in contact with to reach their potential?

Everyone can use encouragement and support. Everyone from the people who check out our groceries or when we pay for gasoline can use a kind word, a smile, looking them in the eye. Bringing to someone affirmation is a wonderful gift you can give.

I remember seeing pictures of Mother Teresa walking with her arms at her side ready to reach out and bless. In your own way live your life ready to bless. How will you do that today?


Love is something if you give it away..you end up having more.
