A Quote to Ponder ...


“There's a lovely Hasidic story of a rabbi who always told his people 
that if they studied the Torah, it would put Scripture on their hearts. 
One of them asked, "Why on our hearts, and not in them?" 
The rabbi answered, "Only God can put Scripture inside. 
But reading sacred text can put it on your heart,
 and then when your hearts break, the holy words will fall inside.”

Friends, I'm on a "Sacred Writing" Retreat this week ...
Back next week, will post on the Lectionary Reading for October 20! 
Peace and Blessings, Cindy
