A Weekend Is Coming
Before we take off for a weekend away from workplace tasks, I hope that each of us can give our work all the energy that we can. I would like to introduce you to Bishop Dom Helder Camara from Brazil. Obviously Bishop Camara was a priest; beyond that he was a mystic, a poet, a philosopher. A few of his quotes are worthy for our devotional thought today and, maybe for the weekend as well.
“When we are dreaming alone it is only a dream. When we are dreaming with others, it is the beginning of reality.”
“When I feed the poor, they call me a saint, but when I ask why the poor are hungry, they call me a communist.”
“When I was a youngster, I wanted to go out running among the mountain peaks and when, between two summits a gap appeared, why not leap across the chasm? Led by the angel's hand, all my life long this is what happened, this exactly.”
Journey well today and throughout the weekend, friends.
