This will be a week of turning in papers and taking exams for many college students. If we could keep everyone in our prayers - as there will be stress and anxiety - for guidance and that by casting our cares upon the Lord we can study hard, write well, and not lose focus on the truly important things in life.
Check out what Aristotle wrote in Book 9 of his Nicomachean Ethics
"So goodwill seems to be a beginning of friendship, in the same way the pleasure of seeing is the beginning of falling in love, for no one falls in love without first being pleased by someone's looks, but someone who delights in those looks is not any the more in love, except when he yearns for the absent person and longs for that person's presence."
Think about the spiritual implications of this...and how we often look to the gifts rather than the Giver of those gifts.
More to come....
God bless,
DMS
