Showing up for the Party

With inflation well above two percent, the Federal Reserve said it is preparing to raise interest rates to slow down the economy.  
"It has been said that the Fed's job is to take the punch bowl away when the party gets too lively. Why, then, did Jesus, upon hearing that the wine had run out at the wedding feast, perform his first public miracle by turning water into wine? Did he just want to keep the party going? It was a signal of transformation. Of hope. Of the courage that was required to launch his ministry. " - Scott Awbrey
Affirmative prayer: Infinite Presence, thank you for inviting me to this party called Life. Whether I’m in a high interest, all-out celebration, or I’m centered down into a time of reflection, I keep my eyes on the grand prize: living moments of joy, fulfilling my dreams, and loving others as I am loved. Dear God, strike up the band! Amen.
