I have become quite the project-starter since I came to Mae Sot. I start many a craft project, but really struggle to see them through.
While this wasn’t really my previous approach, Stephen can attest to my adoption of this habit.
But, alas, I did finish a project today! I have been wanting to have this quote up in the community space, and it’s finished, thankfully quite close to what I wanted.
It’s a Franciscan benediction that I simply love. It really challenges me, and also encourages me deeply with our ministry in our neighborhood. I feel so foolish so much of the time, but perhaps it somehow brings justice and kindness. And lets be honest, “all our children & all our neighbors” just breaks my heart at every read.
Now we just need to hang it…another task for another day or month.
Woo-hoo! Love it.
I particularly loved the phrase, “And may God bless us with just enough foolishness to believe we can make a difference in the world.” Thanks for sharing. Love you!
