Thanks be...
While there are terrible and tragic events in our age, strife and tribulations abound, and yet we are more capable and adept at managing the turmoil of the day than ever before. We are fortunate beyond our recognition and thankfulness to live in such an age. This evening, while Denver is blanketed in snow and frigid cold envelopes our homes; the overwhelming majority of us are warm and safe inside. And on a webcam, via the Internet we can view the Western Wall live (link via Rishon Rishon). This evening, one supplicant sits alone, rocking in prayer and worship.
No matter our faith or lack thereof, there are many things that we take for granted in our daily lives. So in this minute… I pause in thanks and humility.
