As I was reading the local paper today I came across the section entitled, "Words to Remember." Normally, in this section, there is a bible quote to inspire for the day followed by a quotation from some "famous" person that is meant again to inspire for the day.
In today's paper, as always the section entitled "Words to remember" glared at me in news print. As I glared back I discovered that the section was blank. Either do to over sight or under sight or all of the above the paper failed to print any words to remember; there was only a blank spot.
There were no words to remember. Sometimes no words are good words to remember.
Truth is we usually don't give our minds time to truly sink it to the the many words we have encountered. So, no words to remember is a good opportunity to reflect on words already memorized.
Just in case you are one of those that needs words to remember:
"Consider it all joy, my brothers and sisters, when you encounter various trials, for you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance, And let your perseverance be perfect, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing." James 1:2-3
"The entire life of a good Christian is in fact an exercise of holy desire. You do not yet see what you long for, but the very act of desiring prepares you, so that when he comes you may see and be utterly satisfied." St. Augustine
