Strange Sources of Encouragement

Last blog, the one about the child being buried, I asked you to pray for more ways to live like Jesus in the community that we have been called to. God has begun to answer through what I would consider, a less than conventional way. I have always been interested in reading Victor Hugo's Les Mise'rables since Junior High Literature. Last week I checked out the hefty tome (1200+ pages in the translation by Julie Rose in the Modern Library). I just started reading and in the first twenty eight pages I have found much food for thought.

I would encourage everyone to read the first thirty pages.
