Spiritual Reflection for Teachers
Hands! A gentle hand,
a touch of support, an embrace. Signs of relationship.
“We will hold hands,” Morrie said, “And there’ll be a lot of love passing between us. Ted, we’ve had thirty-five years of friendship. You don’t need speech or hearing to feel that.” (Tuesdays With Morrie by Mitch Albom, Hodder, 1998, p71)
Relationships can be a sacrament (visible sign of God). Within relationship we give and receive. We care for each other in times of crisis and brokenness. We are signs of love for each other.
