Grace modeste- an "unassuming grace." Any discussion of a spiritual nature should reflect this mutual kindness. The following are simply my devotional reflections each morning. I cast them like "bread upon the waters," hoping that all who find them will find something of value to nurture their own inner life.

“Successful people aren't born that way...
They become successful by establishing the habit of doing things unsuccessful people don't like to do. The successful people don't always like these things themselves; they just get on and do them.” Anonymous
“Jesus resolutely set out for Jerusalem.” Lk.9
When you think about it, the main mission that Jesus was given by His Father was to go to the cross to cover our debts--an unpleasant task to say the least. Sometimes there are things required of us that demand difficult sacrifices but simply must be done for the greater good. I am sure Jesus did not look forward to His appointed hour in Jerusalem but He let nothing deter Him from His assigned duty. When it is our turn at bat may God give us the grace to do whatever it takes. Conversations Within ts 11/30/2012 (Windsor Rock, AL)
