Thoughts From The Rectory

Ruminations from the Rectory

Dear friends,


What’s my purpose?

Cry has three letters but so does joy.

Hate has four letters but so does love.

Enemies has seven letters but so does friends.

Failure has seven letters but so does success.

Negativity has ten letters but so does positivity.

You always have a choice. So choose the better side.


“What’s my purpose in life?” I asked God “What if I told you that you fulfilled it when you took an extra hour to talk to  your children about their life?” God said. “Or when you paid for that couple in the restaurant? Or when you saved that dog in traffic? Or when you 􀆟tied your father’s shoes for him?”


“Your problem is that you equate your purpose with goal-based achievement. I’m not interested in your achievements,  just your heart.


When you chose to act out of kindness, compassion and love, you are already aligned with your true purpose.” “No need to look any further!”


Do everything in love.        1 Corinthians 16:14
