BEST of PONDER on THIS for Tuesday, May 26th, 2009 by Paul Ferrini in THE SILENCE OF THE HEART
“Don’t make the mistake of thinking that your lifework must bring in a large paycheck. If you believe this, and your work does not meet with worldly success, you will think you have chosen the wrong work. You will feel inadequate and unworthy. You will beat yourself up and abandon your gift.
On the other hand, don’t make the mistake of thinking that you must be poor to serve God. A rich person can serve God as well as one of humble means if he is willing to share his riches. It matters not how much you hold in your hands, but whether your hands are extended outward to your brother or sister. Look from the inside out, look into your heart, at your intention, and you will see things as God sees them.
All men and women are entrusted with a gift. It does not matter how one’s gift compares to another. What matters is that each person comes to embrace the gift and offer it to others.”
Paul Ferrini, in “The Silence of the Heart”
