That We All May Be One, Providence Podcast Episode
/When we’re at our best, noticing and appreciating each other’s gifts, and our own gifts too, our community is better for it. Loving the diversity of gifts we have, and the diverse people who have them, makes us one, as God is one.
This week’s reflection is on the 7th Sunday of Easter, but here are some reflections on the Feast of the Ascension if you’d like to listen to those too. :)
For Reflection:
What are the communities to which you belong? What are the gifts you experience among a diversity of people?
Have you ever been affirmed for your unique gifts (I hope so, because you’re awesome!)? What was that like? Were you able to receive that affirmation and take it in?
As you reflect on all of this, what’s the invitation from God for you? Maybe you could take some quiet time with God and simply listen to what God is speaking to your heart.
