7/3/2022 This Sunday we will celebrate our nation and the good it has brought to so many. This is not burying the bad and evil things America has done but a recognition and celebration of the good America has done. A recognition America is still a place people seek to come to from all over the world.

(While we celebrate America let us celebrate even more the Church which has brought light, hope and blessing to so many despite its human frailty and faults.)

This is an entry from my Hope Journal which helps me hope, beyond hope.

Perfect grace comes from God and is often mangled as it is passed on by humans but a mangled grace is so much better than no grace!!!

From my Grace Journal to remind me of our need not for agreement but grace in our relationships.
