HOLINESS:
ALL  SAINTS  DAY

Seeing all as sacred,

the sun, the moon and the stars,

the tiny baby’s fingers, the old lady’s

wrinkles, proof of her years.

Seeing all with respect,

the homeless and the homebound,

the other’s regular parking place, making

space so the little kid can see the parade.

Seeing the stations of the cross

in church and in people’s lives,

helping them carry their cross and

being with them when they are dying.

Seeing Easter, resurrection,

every day of the week… and being

there to greet the Risen Christ at

breakfast, lunch and supper. Amen.
