Quote of the Day

While searching for my favourite quote to put on Facebook (yes, I finally succumbed) I came across this one also from Marianne Williamson:

Forgiveness is not always easy. At times, it feels more painful than the wound we suffered, to forgive the one that inflicted it. And yet, there is no peace without forgiveness.



It's a good one, especially during Lent. I should like to read her book...

Lyrics...

This was one of the first contemporary church songs I heard, and it's one of my favourites.

We are Called to Serve

Refrain
We are called to serve,
we are called by grace
to cherish Christ in every face.
We are called to serve,
we are called by name,
and in all we are,
God's love proclaim.

1. Called beyond our human understanding,
called before the world came into view.
Within your mother's womb,
your name was known to me,
for you did not choose me, no, I chose you.

2. Called to be a light amid the darkness,
called to help a doubting world believe.
Empowered by my Spirit,
anointed with my love,
you are called to give and share what you believe.
