"You shall eat the fruit of the labour of your hands;
you shall be happy, and it shall go well with you." ~ Psalm 128:2
I am hosting Thanksgiving supper for my family today. I am staying somewhere that allows my parents to move around without the barriers of stairs as everything here is on one level. It has been a long time since I have cooked a turkey with all the fixings and I am a little bit nervous about it so I am finding solace in today's psalm.
Today's readings are about marriage one level but so relevant today in living community. We need one another in this world that sometimes seems to spin out of control. Whether we are naming things unyet named or needing to know that someone is there to stand beside us, we need to not be alone in life. Jesus is our brother in a family that is bound together.
Jesus takes the children in his arms at the end of today's Gospel and blesses them. He will do the same for us, if we let him.
Peace,
Suzanne
