WATCH WORD FOR THE WEEK

I will recount the gracious deeds of the Lord, the praiseworthy acts of the
Lord, because of all that the Lord has done for us.  -Isaiah 63:7



 

THOUGHT FOR THIS WEEK

The way to the real world is not merely to measure and observe what is
outside us, but discover our own inner ground. For that is where the world
is, first of all: in my deepest self."  - Thomas Merton, Contemplation in a
World of Action
