Inspiring

So I figure, if we occasionally write about the things that are bringing us down, we should also include the inspirational.  On that note, I thought I would share a short 'something' that Father Gabin (our Pastor) shared with us this evening.  He told us about his father taking him hiking when he was a young boy, and that his father always carried a walking stick with him in the woods.  It was sturdy, and he could depend on its' strength, and it seemed to make his father walk taller and with more confidence.  "God should be our walking stick", he said.  "Lean on him as you walk through the world, and especially when the climb is hard - it's what God is there for, for us to depend on Him."

I really needed to hear those words tonight, because no matter what material things can be taken away from us, God will be there if we just let Him.  Good to be reminded of that.

Love to all...
