Back from my retreat and one of
the gems I waked away with was you need a family motto.
Well
after batting a few things around I said to a friend, "We already have
one." I guess I have always operated on this sentiment especially during
hard times. "It's His (God's) plan not mine I am just along for the
ride."
Just now
in the kitchen today my husband and I were talking about our weekend events and
at the Mass he attended Fr. Moretti suggested each family have a scripture
passage that is theirs. My husband said well we already do,
“Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and
the road broad that leads to destruction, and those who enter through it are
many. How narrow the gate and constricted the road that leads to
life. And those who find it are few." Matthew 7:13-14
So we have our motto and our scripture verse already, now to
get the laundry in order and start planning those meals so we can find peace in
our world. I am betting it takes a little more than that but I am willing to
start in that direction.
