A good reminder, Jerry. I was thinking about this very matter earlier today, and I will be watching more carefully for my own opportunities to serve the World in general...and to be the hands and the heart and the voice of Christ, or the Holy Spirit, or the Goodness of Life or whatever one might choose to call it...and not let those opportunities slip by unnoticed.

One person I'd like to mention and give honor to is Mother Teresa. Have just been reading a book of things she said on various occasions, and it is very inspiring. I also know some people at the United Church who are doing a lot of good work, and I know a local therapist who has tremendously helped a whole lot of people, and sometimes for free (when they could not afford to pay) or for a fraction of her normal fee. She's one of the most gifted spiritual persons I have ever known, and a true professional. Her name is Sandra.
