Ash Wednesday
I came home from worship.
She said, “Hey, what have you been doing, your forehead is dirty?”
I said, “I was reminded how vulnerable and fragile life is and how deeply I am loved…”
“Oh,” she said, “…here’s a napkin to wipe that off.”
I thought to myself, “not yet…not yet…”

As if we have not already been recently reminded of the fragility of mankind, the disaster in Japan and elsewhere has put an exclamation point on the fact. My heart is truly saddened at the destruction and devastation I have seen on TV today. I will be in prayer for all of us in this time of hardship, most especially for the people of Japan. And yet, this will undoubtedly become an example of the love of God for all His people as the world comes together to provide assistance for them.
ReplyDeleteMy thoughts have been with my friends of Japanese descent today.
