Summer has officially arrived and with it all of the beauty and a different feel to life, Most Holy One. Lush greenness everywhere we turn, the juice of plump and sweet berries on our chins, the smell of peonies filling the air, and the warm breezes blowing through our days. So much for which to be grateful! May the light that fills our days also fill our hearts with an awareness of those who are struggling, lost, hurting, or confused. We have been blessed with gifts to share. May we be agents of your grace and mercy and peace. It is in your always loving name, we pray. Amen.
