it's very encouraging to see how God works through people... we, of course don't realize this until someone wiser points it out to us... a generous soul reflects the face of God... what do we consider as out greatest gift to our neighbour? ...loose change for the beggar, some food for a hungry child, a warm blanket for the homeless... the list goes on... a kind word means much to me personally; i really should speak it more often... Monday's homily pierced my heart... and in the midst of emotion (tears) it was clear: generosity is the key to peace in this world... if we could just be more giving, there will be enough for the taking...
