“Never forget, a teacher of mine once said, that every Sunday morning when you rise to preach, someone in that congregation has just suffered the broken heart that they will spend a lifetime trying to mend. Never forget that someone in that congregation has just found a way through some great desolation. Never forget that someone in that congregation is here for the first time, wondering if this will be cared for. And somewhere in that congregation there is someone grappling with a choice that will remake their life.” -Nancy McDonald Ladd, from After the Good News
How do you cultivate an awareness of the needs of others around you?
I found your website just last week. I needed a new daily devotional. I just became a member to my local Unitarian Church. And this has been a blessing for me. So keep up the good work, I am grateful for what you are doing.
