Genesis 15:5-6
[People often say that]
their great gift is their children.
Anyone blessed with the awareness that the ones they love are their
greatest blessing would be wise indeed to always treat those who are beloved
with the dignity, respect and courtesy that convey the message that these gifts
are indeed beloved and precious.
In the love of Jesus,
Father Lenny Zamborsky

For reflection:
What are the blessings in your life? What would
happen if you woke up one morning to find that one of those blessings was
gone?
If we are parents, do we thank God daily for the gift of our children? Are we grateful for spouses, siblings, and others who are gifts in our lives? Do we treat them with the dignity, respect and courtesy that convey they are beloved?

Many people did wake up one morning to find out that one of their blessings was gone- our beloved Fr Lenny. I pray that we may all treat one another as Fr Lenny treated others, with dignity, respect, and courtesy. May you thank God for your blessings daily, because you never know when you wake up and find that one of your blessings is gone.
ReplyDeleteYou bless me Beth. I love you.
ReplyDeleteWe only really recognize blessings as a blessing when we realize that they are not permanent, but temporary. So really - every moment is a blessing, even the hard ones, because in the next moment it's gone.
