just enough foolishness: a thankful spirit / 4

a thankful spirit / 4

With the proper footwear, walking on those yellow dots that line the edge of the train platform feels like a free foot massage. Yes, please. I'll walk this train platform all day or night. Since I was already planning on doing such- commuting in and out of Boston by train lends itself to some time spent on train platforms- I mind as well embrace the little luxuries.

Happy Thursday, friends. Embrace your little luxuries, whatever they may be.

Hello! I grew up the third child of a Baptist minister and a fifth grade teacher. These days, I am a wife and a mother, spending time in a combination of classrooms, offices and my cozy kitchen. Our growing family resides in a petite mid-1800's home on the North Shore of Massachusetts.

I believe in the power of words; the power of finding your voice, or seeking it, at least. Which is why I'm here-- to root out my voice in the form of fingertips hitting a keyboard.

I would love to hear from you-

A FRANCISCAN BENEDICTION

May God bless you with discomfort
At easy answers, half-truths, & superficial relationships
So that you may live from deep within your hearts.

May God bless you with anger
At injustice, oppression, & exploitation of God's creations
So that you may work for justice, freedom, and peace.

May God bless you with tears
To shed for those who suffer pain, rejection, hunger, & war.
So that you may reach out your hands to comfort them
To turn their pain into joy.

And may God bless you with

JUST ENOUGH FOOLISHNESS
To believe that you can make a difference in the world.

So that you can do what others claim cannot be done:
Cry the transforming Gospel of Jesus with your life to the ends of the earth.

Amen.
