Raven

 



Edger Allen Poe published the poem, raven in 1845. A man so distraught by a loss of his beloved. Trying to keep his mind busy in a book. The raven shows us grief, negativity and depression. You can not run from the thoughts but face them.

“Take thy beak from out my heart”

Its a wonderful Life

  My favorite Christmas movie is Its a wonderful life, a classic black and white movie i watched with my grandmother as a child. Lessons in this movie are powerful reminders… It’s not just about us. Other lives matter. We are better, richer, because of other people. When we hurt, we hurt others. When we are in pain, we tend to feel we are suffering alone, but this is never the case. When someone we love hurts – we hurt. We can’t hide our pain from people we love. They know. They may not know how to help or even how to express their concern – at least not in a way we will receive it – but they know – and care. We need community. We really do need people in our life. We never realize this more than when we are in need. (I can’t imagine my life personally without the church.) There is power in cooperation. We can do great things when we work together. I love this quote by Aimee Semple McPherson, “With God, I can do great things! But with God and you, and the people who you can interes...
