An Evening Contemplation

Yesterday, looking at the evening sky, these were my totally random thoughts ...

A friend of mine (who is now a Franciscan priest) once told me that clouds are every color except white. Studying the puffy, billowy clouds overhead I saw purple, pink, blue, grey and yellow, but no white.

The puffy clouds reminded me of  this conversation from Winnie the Pooh: "Why is the sky blue?" asked Piglet. "To give us something to talk about," said Pooh.

Then, probably because I was in an introspective mood, this quote popped into my head: "Faith is not believing that God can. It is knowing that God will.

And such was my evening. That night I went to bed and slept well.
