“From a waitress to the head of a movie studio, from an elevator operator to the president of a nation, there is no one
whose job is unimportant to God."
- Marianne Williamson
Today's quote reminds me of Tim Russert, the award-winning television journalist who was moderator of Meet the Press from 1991 - 2008. He modeled this quote for me.
One of the things I
admired about Mr. Russert was the way he treated everyone equally and with respect, seeing beyond the job to the person.
He also gave his best to every job he held, from working during his high school summers alongside his father on a garbage truck to everything he did as as lawyer, journalist, and author.
Is there someone who models this for you? Inspires you to honor all work?
With reverence, may we give our best to the work that we do and hold all work in high regard.
Most of all, may we see the dignity in all people.
Truly,
Charlene
THE NINTH GIFT IS REVERENCE.
May you appreciate the wonder that you
are
and the miracle of all creation.
