Wonderful Words of Others: Thomas Merton

"I am obscurely convinced that there is a need in the world for something I can provide and there is a need for me to provide it.

True - someone else can do it.

God does not need me.

But I feel He is asking me to provide it."
Thomas Merton
January 23, 1958

Good thought. Sometimes I think there is something ONLY you can provide though - something nobody else can do. All of us need to serve; all of us can make a difference.
In His service,
