For your consideration…..

We often hear that “You have to earn respect.” Certainly this is true when you have a relationship with someone. However, today’s message is about people you are just meeting….people you do not know.

People….all people….all living things…..are entitled to our initial respect….unconditionally….without judgment. We are asked to respect them until their behavior tarnishes it. Then we are reminded that while we may not respect the behavior we still must respect the life.

That is the HOPE. And so it is.

Bit by bit, piece by piece, HOPE by HOPE action steps anyone can take…..

-Meditate/pray…ask…”What is my next step for my highest good and the highest good of all?”

-Drink lots of water.

-Get outdoors and take in at least 10 deep breaths.

-Remember, a little respect goes a long way.

What made me smile yesterday…..

-A gorgeous day.

– It was fun cooking with Cathy preparing for our girls weekend at the beach house.

-Visiting with and watching the nieces and nephews do their activities. “Normal” days….no fuss….are just the best.

-Alex and James are so excited for their trip and we are excited for them.

Love, Blessings and Gratitude,

Rev. Chris
