Blog Post 8/20/2022 – What Can We Do?


 

Malcolm Gladwell, in his best-selling book The Tipping Point wrote “look at the world around you--it may seem like an immovable, implacable place.  It is not.  Make the slightest push—in just the right place—it can be tipped.” 

 

Today, in our world your push is needed in living clearly and compassionately the Gospel given to us by Jesus Christ.  St. Therese of Lisieux - The Little Flower advises us to "Miss no single opportunity of making some small sacrifice, here by a smiling look, there by a kindly word; always doing the smallest right and doing it all for love.

 

Think about how you can live the Beatitudes that Jesus gave us with St. Teresa’s advise regarding “the Little things,” remembering we are sinners so for us we need to be reminded that Forgiveness is an act of the will and not an attitude or an emotional response.

 

May God Be Praised and your day be blessed.
