To see with the soul,and heart, is gifted to yourself,bishop Dunn,
As well as a most well coming smile,to give to others.
The “holy spirit” gave myself a poem,many years ago, that I pass onto you,
“How I wished I could place a million smiles,on the lands of sadness,
So all who walk downcast, May each gather,
Two special smiles,
One to keep,and one to place down for another.
“Prayers will be said for your intention ,God bless.

Our prayers are with you Bishop Pat! Your reflections were beautiful to read. It reminded me of John Milton’s poem on his blindness:

“When I consider how my light is spent,
Ere half my days, in this dark world and wide,
And that one Talent which is death to hide
Lodged with me useless, though my Soul more bent
To serve therewith my Maker, and present
My true account, lest he returning chide;
“Doth God exact day-labour, light denied?”
I fondly ask. But patience, to prevent
That murmur, soon replies, “God doth not need
Either man’s work or his own gifts; who best
Bear his mild yoke, they serve him best. His state
Is Kingly. Thousands at his bidding speed
And post o’er Land and Ocean without rest:
They also serve who only stand and wait.”

Much love and many prayers for you!
