GATHERING ENTRANCE REFLECTION John Eldredge, The Sacred Romance: Drawing Closer to the Heart of God CANDLE LIGHTING GATHERING ENTRANCE REFLECTION We are experiencing all kinds of trouble, but we aren’t crushed. We are confused, but we aren’t depressed. We are harassed, but we aren’t abandoned. We are knocked down, but we aren’t knocked out. 2 Corinthians 4:8-9 Common English Bible (CEB) GATHERING ENTRANCE REFLECTION Ours is not the task of fixing the entire world all at once, but of stretching out to mend the part of the world that is within our reach. Any small, calm thing that one soul can do to help another soul, to assist some portion of this poor suffering world, will help immensely. It is not given to us to know which acts or by whom, will cause the critical mass to tip toward an enduring good.
