This sign hangs on the wall of a small storefront office and welcome center where anyone can walk right in and have a free cup of coffee or sit for a while, relax and talk.
It has a certain kind of ring to it. I would welcome that in my day. What if everyone I met followed that principle? I wouldn't mind putting my feet on the floor each morning.
More Grace, Less Judgment
Easy to remember and a pretty clever way to live. Judgment takes up quite a bit of mental energy. And in the end, what does it really do for us? But grace - giving even if it is not deserved - suggests forgiveness and hints at a desire for fellowship. Both have a way of coming back, but only one can put a spring in your step.
The storefront is the Open Hands Mercy Station Matthew - meeting the needs of folks through the week.
