Not long after the
posting of Oct. 23, in which I felt led to “Take [more] care of the needs of
others”, I was attending church at St. Columban in Birmingham, Michigan. Our church music director Bob asked us to
turn to page 628 in our Gather
hymnal. I grabbed the book and opened to
a random page, and was surprised to find that it was page 628. When something that unlikely happens,
especially in church, I tend to pay attention.
I feel that the Holy Spirit may be trying to get me to notice something.

The hymn was “No Greater
Love” by Michael Joncas. The lyrics
start with these words:
There is no greater love
says the Lord
Than to lay down your
life for a friend
It seemed to me that it
was a reinforcement of the message I reported here on Oct. 23: Set my own needs aside, and look out for
others more than I currently do.
