Weare-theBody is a reflection on the church as the body of Christ. It was motivated by the spring 2010 bible study series and church reform process undertaken by the LaPêche Pastoral Charge of the United Church of Canada in Québec, and facilitated by Rev. Gisèle Gilfillan. It continues as my personal journey exploring the word of God and her relevance in my life and the 21st century.

Sometimes ...

Gisèle responds to "Without Love"

Something someone said to me long ago...when we "do" out of our giftedness, whateve that is - kindness, truth-telling, encouragement etc...it doesn't feel like work, it doesn't "cost" much energy.

Sometimes you are already "doing" out of this place, this gift, without trying hard, without even knowing it - it just oozes out of you. sometimes it is like a passion that just overtakes you. Sometimes maybe it is a "should", a nudge that is guiding you someplace else...the thing about the "should" though is that it is often tied up with guilt...
