So, as you know, I have been having some issues lately. The friend that pointed it out to me and brought it to my attention at first made me upset. After all, no one (well, at least most people) don't like to be called on things that they're not doing right ;)
Anyways, though, after some conversation about it, he reminded me that I really need to spend some time in prayer...
So, this friend is also Catholic. But he truly respects what I believe....and knowing that I said I wanted to work on my icon corner to help me find a place to pray...he decided (later in the day) to send me a picture (via phone) of a wall of icons. :)
It's something little - but the smallest gesture of kindness can mean so much. It has encouraged me to try to pass on kindness to others as well...as I mess up with that quite a bit... :( May God help us to grow in this, and other things, during this Christmas season!
