Each week I will choose a spiritual and inspiring quote and publish it in this section. I will also add a comment on why I think it is a good quote. If you have any suggestions please pass them along to Me. I hope you enjoy this feature.
"Do not judge others; we do not know the battles they face. Love and be kind, for it costs nothing."
Henrietta Newton Martin
In the Gospel reading for this coming Sunday, Jesus says, "Do not judge unless you want to be judged". I also like Ms. Newton Martin's take on this that we never really know why someone does what they do. We can never really appreciate what they have endured or are enduring that brought them to behave the way they do. And, as she adds, love and kindness cost us nothing.
The Rev. Patrick Blaney
