Luke 24:45
Words of Wisdom
When the heart is closed, this heart closes the mind, and when the heart and mind are closed, there is no place for God.
Pope Francis
God acts in the simplicity of open hearts, in the patience of those who pause until they can see clearly.
Pope Francis, Let Us Dream: A Path to a New Future
Begin challenging your own assumptions. Your assumptions are your windows on the world. Scrub them off every once in a while, or the light won’t come in.
Alan Alda
Prayer
God of Patience, your word is often hard to understand — life is hard to understand! Grant me the patience and will to challenge my assumptions so I can BE your light in our world today. Amen.
