Bible

When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. 1 Corinthians 13:11

Baldwin

The people who have managed to get off this block have only got as far as a more respectable ghetto.

Blessing

One lament on the journey of faith is not being where we want to be. In fact, it sometimes brings a shame that stops us in our tracks. We know we, or at least think we know, we should be further and better. Nevertheless, if we look back we can see the marks of progress. Though not where we wish to be, we can be grateful we are not where and how we used to be. And it does not matter if we are inches or miles from former things. Progress is progress, and it is has to be acknowledged and celebrated.

May we be blessed with celebrating our progress this Lenten season.

Here is a classic Spiritual of gratitude for progress.
