My Thoughts This Morning

A very dear person in my life got me thinking this morning about so many different things about this life and choices that we make and I'm so GRATEFUL!!!  Way too often we lose track of what really matters in this life and the different journey that we are all on, at least I know I do.  We all make different choices and that is OK.  That is how we learn and we are all on our own different journey of gaining knowledge and finding truth.  I was reminded of the lyrics of one of the songs that I sang in Women's Chorus:

 We are pilgrims on a journey,
 and companions on the road;
 we are here to help each other
 walk the mile and bear the load.

 I will hold the Christ-light for you
 in the night-time of your fear;
 I will hold my hand out to you,
 speak the peace you long to hear.

 I will weep when you are weeping;
 when you laugh I’ll laugh with you;
 I will share your joy and sorrow
 till we’ve seen this journey through.

 When we sing to God in heaven
 we shall find such harmony,
 born of all we’ve known together
 of Christ’s love and agony.

 Brother, sister, let me serve you,
 let me be as Christ to you;
 pray that I may have the grace to
 let you be my servant too.

I'm just reminded that we all experience different things and have different trials along our journey home.  It is not our place to judge, but rather to love, love, and keep LOVING!  Because that is how Christ is for us.  I just pray that through all my different imperfections, I can be as Christ would be to other people by loving, serving, and holding my hand out to others regardless of their circumstances.
