And all in the crowd were trying to touch him, for power came out from him and
healed all of them.
There are many of us who are keeping very busy, but we are not accomplishing very much. We
are like the proverbial octopus on roller skates. We are here, then we are there, ultimately we are
all over the place, but we are not getting anywhere specific. We pursue many pleasures, but find
little that brings us lasting happiness.
The greatest pleasure we can have is touching a life with God's great love.
(Luke 6:19
NRSV)
In a cartoon by Charles Schulz, Lucy tells Charlie Brown that she's decided to begin a new
hobby. Charlie Brown commends her decision, saying how important it is to accomplish
something meaningful with your life. In response Lucy says something like this, "Accomplish
something? I thought all we were supposed to do was keep busy!"
Dear God, help me to touch a life today. Amen.
