 True? 

A man gradually formulates his religion, be it what it may.  A man has no religion who has not slowly and painfully gathered one together, adding to it, shaping it; and one's religion is never complete and final, it seems, but must always be undergoing modification.

    Isaiah 50:  The Lord GOD is my help, therefore I am not disgraced; I have set my face like flint, knowing that I shall not be put to shame.
    Philippians 2:  Rather, he emptied himself, taking the form of a slave, coming in human likeness;. . . .
    John 9:  He said, “Go into the city to a certain man and tell him, ‘The teacher says, “My appointed time draws near; in your house I shall celebrate the Passover with my disciples.”‘”


    “Friendship,” Coleridge writes, “is a sheltering tree.” It shades us in the sun, shelters us in the rain and protects us from the harsh winds of life. Our friends stand between us and the storms of life to give us the time and reflection we need to become our strongest selves.
    The Monastic Way, Sister Joan Chittister

    Donna Dinsmore asks for prayers for her daughter, Dana, (and unborn child) who is having  some problems during her pregnancy and still has 10 weeks to go.
