“Do you not know that you are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in you?” [1 Corinthians 3:16]
I received this response to Soul Nugget from yesterday: “Don’t take your organs to heaven, God knows we need them here.” The response is below and I thought it was appropriate that I share it with you:
“My husband died waiting for a heart and a lung transplant. I spoke for the transplant organization in Norfolk, Virginia for the years between 1997 and 2006. To help people to decide to donate, even if it is just the eyes it can help people to see. Life Net is a wonderful organization. My son-in-law’s father celebrated his transplant birthday of 14 years in September. A friend in Norfolk, VA has had 3 kidney transplants. A friend in Texas got a kidney after a 2-year wait. These people are glad to be alive. This is a topic that touches a lot of people. Please ask people to pray about it and donate. It makes a meaningful use of your body parts you no longer need. When you are in the casket, nobody knows what part of you is missing – even eyes – you can’t tell by looking.”
Music for your time of morning prayer and reflection.
Bless to me O God, the earth beneath my feet
Bless to me O God, the path on which I go
Bless to me O God, the people whom I meet
O God of Sea and Sky, bless to my life –
As it was, as it is, and as it shall be evermore.
Amen
Let your heart take courage!
We are all sparks of the Divine Flame
Blessed Be
Compassionate Be
Boldly Be
