On Lives Lived: There is no honor, except what God may please to bestow

 
 
Above is Jamie's photo set for the Month of Sharaf -- look deeply into the faces of these souls! --  and below the first half of the video I took at our Feast last Thursday. (Should have got this all posted sooner, but it was a "no Internet weekend" for Bonita and I up in Victoria.) -gw
 
They who are possessed of riches, however, must have the utmost regard for the poor, for great is the honor destined by God for those poor who are steadfast in patience. By My life! There is no honor, except what God may please to bestow, that can compare to this honor. Great is the blessedness awaiting the poor that endure patiently and conceal their sufferings, and well is it with the rich who bestow their riches on the needy and prefer them before themselves.
