The bishop of our synod shared this from David Steingl-Rast in a recent weekly email letter. It spoke to me about the times we are living in:
“If you’re grateful, you’re not fearful, and if you’re not fearful, you’re not violent. If you’re grateful, you act out of a sense of enough and not a sense of scarcity, and you are willing to share. If you’re grateful, you are enjoying the differences between people and you are respectful to everybody…”
Hope I can remember this as I get frustrated with folks not following proper social distance or wearing masks or any number of fear-filled responses.
Respectful! A good word and an even better practice.
Blessings. And prayers.
