For your consideration…
Radio broadcaster Paul Harvey hosted a popular show entitled, “And now for the rest of the story.” The concept was he took a story people were familiar with and then added unknown facts. Of course, it gave people pause to consider how that affected there opinion or feelings about the story. It went to show that most people most of the time do not know all of someone else’s story. We, therefore, make decisions and hold opinions that based of misinformation or missing information.
That’s the first part of our message. The second part reminds us that our story is not ended. There are beginnings and endings to moments, events, periods, etc. but they are not the end of our story. We need to remember this about ourselves and about others. Our stories are in progress.
That is the HOPE. And so it is.
Bit by bit, piece by piece, HOPE by HOPE action steps anyone can take…
-Affirm…“I am loved.”
-Remember…You are the keeper of your light. Wherever you go, there can be no darkness.
-Meditate/pray…ask…”What is my next step for my highest good and the highest good of all?”
-Drink lots f water.
-Get outdoors and take in at least 10 deep breaths.
-Remember that we are a work in progress. Our story is not ended.

Love, Blessings, and Gratitude,
Rev. Chris
