MOLESKIN:
St Francis of Assisi has been given credit for the following phrase:
“Preach the gospel at all time and when necessary use words.”
It is believed it was derived from this original statement:
“It is no use walking anywhere to preach unless our walking is our preaching.”
Both ring true:  let your actions speak louder than your words. Jesus’ action of sacrifice on the cross is the loudest statement of love.

BONUS MOLESKIN:
A rainbow appeared this morning. It was a reminder of God’s promise to Noah and to us that he will never again destroy the earth in that manner. It was a gift he gave to mankind that reminds us of his love and mercy. Let’s remember that gift when we feel overwhelmed by the waves in our lives!
