Just a wee bit...

"Like every other gift and grace from God, hope speaks through human voices and touch."
Kathy Coffey, "Give Us This Day"

And here's the thing...the human voices and touch needed are ours. It's up to us, those of us who look to God to right the world, to listen to God and find out what WE are to do. Lately, I have been struggling with my Homework Room duty at school. Students come in over their lunch recess and work on school stuff they need to finish. Think the movie "The Breakfast Club,"  I play the role of the poor soul that has to monitor them. (Yea, THAT guy!) I realize today's Gospel of the mustard seed and yeast address exactly what is needed to make the situation better for us all. A tiny bit more compassion and love will go a long way to help. A bit more patience, and loving concern, coming from me, will likely turn the whole thing around. I'm so grateful that God infuses me with the love first, so I can pass it along. God's love is already there, so I can draw from it all day long and share with others. Today, let's think and pray about the situations we find ourselves in, where just a wee bit of God will help the whole picture. That wee bit of God is already inside of us...we just need to tap into it. Love, heidi
