Thank You

When something is done for me, I try to remember to say, “Thank you.” And, when I do for others, whether the work is great or small, I hope to hear, “Thank you.” So, too, in my prayers. For God’s mercy, peace and grace, I say, “Thank you.” One day, not long ago, I had been in the world, trying to solve some problem or throw a little oil on troubled waters. I came home weary and could muster no more energy than to sit and listen for the thrum of the universe or for any still, small voice that cared to speak to me. In the silence I heard it. I’m sure I did. A whisper. So quiet. God saying, “Thank you.”

Go in peace to love and serve the Lord!
