Wednesday of Week 9 in Ordinary Time

God’s gift was not a spirit of timidity.
But the spirit of power and of love.
Or for that matter of undue temerity.
I looked at my wife and felt great love.And then in my waking dream.
I dreamt that I loved the whole world.
Why does this feeling only really come in a dream.
Why is compassion in us too often furled.But we should love all.
Irrespective of who they are.
Then truly we could walk tall.
And with amazing vision see far from afar.

That time will come in life.
But maybe not now in this life.

……..

God’s gift is not fear
Or timidity in life
It is just true hope

…….

See 2 Timothy 1
