STORY CONTINUES BELOW THESE SALTWIRE VIDEOSLast Saturday, I had the pleasure of going to a movie. It’s an indulgence of time and money that I don’t often make. We joined some friends and settled in to enjoy Tom Hanks, in “A Man Called Otto.”
So much of life is unpredictable, isn’t it? As it happens, I sat with two separate families as their loved ones edged ever closer to death in the 18 hours before this movie, so I was kind of ripe for feeling reflective about how life can so quickly change. Over the past year, I’ve had the pleasure of working with a search committee, as they try to envision the needs of their communities of faith and find a match in ministry. Joyously, they accepted the name presented, and are anticipating a new beginning. Maybe even a kind of resurrection! It is such an exciting time! A glimmer of hope !
Otto gets a second chance at life, only when he is able to see that there is something for him to work toward, and then, realizes how fleetingly short and precious life is.
