Re: February 24th
Today's scripture had at least 2 different messages in it. In the Beatitudes I was once again reminded that in our weaknesses, struggles and pain we see and experience God love and mercy. Even in difficult times we are blessed. Possibly difficult to see the blessing at the time so a reminder like today is good.

“Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
What an intriguing quote and how difficult it is for one to feel blessed while they're being blasted and ridiculed for their beliefs. How tempting it is to take the easy road and worship quietly.

Re: February 24th
OK, I'm going to post this a second time, I hope it works. I posted yesterday but must have forgot to "send" it. It was interesting to read about the Beatitudes, Salt & Light and then have the meditation only on Light. Being the light is lots of responsibility. Knowing that people are looking to see Christ in me can cause some stress. When reading this I couldn't help but think of the saying that " if someday I am being persecuted for my beliefs I hope that there would be enough evidence to find me guilty."
