Action and Deeds...........August 16






"Our actions have a tongue of their own;
they have an eloquence of their own,
even when the tongue is silent.
For deeds prove the lover more than words."



St. Cyril of Jerusalem



[At the top:] "Prepare yourself"
[At the bottom:] "By devoting your life to giving aid to the poor."

Friends,

Here is the meaning of the French words on the card:

[At the top:] "Prepare yourself"

[At the bottom:] "By devoting your life to giving aid to the poor."

Anne - Pity the recipent of the "I love you" words but no lovable actions.

Diane S. - Good to "see" you. Hope all is well.

Oh, this is so true... "For deeds prove the lover more than words."

I often find myself just giving lip service instead of giving love through action. Thanks for this beautiful card.

Regina - Thank you. Your words expressed my thoughts exactly. I will join you in trying to have more action and less words.
