Appearances-to-the-contrary-notwithstanding, Spring is
coming! In this particular moment the snow is coming down hard, but it will not
remain this way forever. Sometimes it is helpful to remember that even when the
way ahead seems dark and we don’t have a clear sense of what to do next, the
dawn in coming. And in the meantime, we can take the words of John Wesley to
heart. “Do all the good you can. By all
the means you can. In all the ways you can. In all the places you can. At all
the times you can. To all the people you can. As long as ever you can.”
There is a lot of turmoil and upheaval in our world right now. It can seem
pretty overwhelming. There is more to do than we can possible accomplish alone.
Which is why it is such profoundly good news that we are not alone. We have
each other. And we have the eternal presence of God. We are only called to do what
we can do. We are only called to attend to what is in front of us. Together we
have the power and the responsibility to touch the world with God’s Love. What
are you being called to do today?
