“…but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored?” Jesus Conversations Within” ts 12/8/2019
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.

“It takes many good deeds to build a good reputation, and only one bad one to lose it.” Benjamin Franklin
We all know it is easier to destroy than to build, and so much so where our reputation is concerned. A good friend told me once, that “it takes three “attaboys” to make up for one “Ah Crap!’” For good or bad, our every action is under the scrutiny of others. If we want an honorable reputation, one that honors God, we must learn to scrutinize our own actions before we turn them loose on the world.
