Just got back from church. It never ceases to amaze me how when I go to church, the message always seems to be tailored just for me and what I'm going through.
This morning, the priest's sermon relied upon a marriage blessing (Did he just say the M word?) . We are Episcopalean, and the priest pulled inspiration from the following M blessing from our M ceremony (others may have this too):
Quote:
Make their life together a sign of Christ's love to this sinful and broken world, that unity may overcome estrangement, forgiveness heal guilt, and joy conquer despair.
WOW! Was I the only one God expected to show up for church today? Did W hear that? And how on point is that?
Unlike in the past when something in the sermon talked about M, I was really uplifted this morning. I gained a lot of strength to know (again) exactly what I'm fighting for. And, I am not fearful or nervous if the worst happens b/c I have let that go. It's not up to me.
So, it's time to finish the yard chores around the house and make the last minute preparations for the kids to return to school tomorrow.
I am NOT watching or waiting to see if W took anything away from the sermon this morning, but it would be impossible to ignore the message. Thanks God.
