Your Happiness

A quote from Catherine:


It comforts me exceedingly to hear you are happy.


Catherine was one who wanted her sisters to work and be their best. So many times the sisters would be doing more than they really could, but they had a wonderful model and leader who did not shirk the work. To be happy in the work and ministry a sister was doing meant that the sister would be animated and would animate those around her.

Today we look at the work we do, whether it is washing dishes, doing laundry, sweeping the floor, preparing for class, or writing a report, or creating a project, giving assignments or caring for the sick. Are we happy? Do we like what we do? Do we see value in it?

There is a song we often used with elementary child that has the line, "If you're happy and you know, then your face will surely show it.." Are you animated and do you animate all those around you? If not, start today!
