Celebrating Everyday Spirituality

Unless Someone Like You Cares

Dr. Seuss said, “Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It’s not.”  I believe things will get better and believe they already are. We are on our way to a world where God’s kingdom will be ever more visible, for we constantly pray “Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.” Along with prayer, we sacrifice, serve, perform works of mercy.  Some day “the calf and the young lion shall browse together.” Peace, unity, right relationships will prevail. It’s coming, but we have to help it along. We need to “care a whole awful lot.” What act of caring will you choose today?
