Discerning Connections


Sunday 8/30/15 started off as many Sundays do, with Church.  And, on the 242nd (PALINDROME, no wonder the day was so great - and we passed 55855 in  the van!) day of 2015 we were treated to another wonderful message from a young member of our Church community.  Pastor Michael sent us an e-Psitle a few weeks ago about how encouraging it is to have so many of our younger members interested in the ministry.  And, it's true, it's fun to be connected on Facebook and see Emily at her Ordination and to wish Margaret best of luck as she starts Seminary.  And then, these past two weeks, we have been able to hear how Ian and John have connected their interests and dreams into a potential career in ministry as well.  And then I found this quote which does not have only a religious implication.  John's message, to me, can connect well to this quote, as well as the discernment that goes on when a person decides to add religious education to their lives.  BUT, it also applies to every day life.  Trying to connect to this quote and trying to determine and discern what is truly right - it's hard but very necessary!
