Some of us never knew this man or his impact on the world until this past week when he passed away. Clearly he touched many, crossed the boundaries of faith and reminded others of a higher calling, of a greater cause.
Pastors, imams, rabbis, priests, politicians and ordinary folk may not line up to pay tribute to our lives when we pass on, but that should not prevent us from working to build bridges instead of walls, to be generous instead of miserly, to do good deeds… and yes to trust in God and return to Him when we err. We are not called to be perfect, but to live good lives in service of others.
