Now is the Time

This is my first blog, inspired by my 18 year old son on a road trip I took with his band “The Swing Kids”. As we discussed my being away next year, he asked me if I would send him emails or call him to describe my day. This led me to thinking about my journey thus far; from tax accountant to minister, and wishing I had kept a diary. Well better late than never, so henceforth I will share my thoughts here on my journey to the Ministry.

I have been particularly inspired on this journey by two quotes, which I will explore in later postings. For now, here they are:

“Now is the accepted time, not tomorrow, not some more convenient season. It is today that our best work can be done and not some future day or future year. It is today that we fit ourselves for the greater usefulness of tomorrow. Today is the seed time, now are the hours of work, and tomorrow comes the harvest and the playtime.” WEB Dubois and

"Power at its best is love implementing the demands of justice. Justice at its best is love correcting everything that stands against love." Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Let me just say now that I can use companions on my journey and I hope you will come along!!

Peace & Blessings for the journey,
Suzanne
