There’s a Chinese Proverb that shares, “listen to all, pluck a feather from every passing goose”. It is so easy to get caught up in our own narrative, our sinful pride—like the Pharisee—makes this extremely easy. On the other hand, it is also easy to look at those around us and see only their faults and flaws (again our pride), remember God doesn’t pay us to be a critic of His handiwork. We never know when Christ is going to speak to us from the most flaw-ridden and unlikely of sources. The Website of American Carpatho-Russian Orthodox Diocese of North America

There’s a restaurant my wife and I attend fairly regularly and we often end up with the same waiter. He always ends the night by saying the same two things: “Enjoy the rest of your evening” and “be safe.” Be safe. Of course, we all try our best to be safe.

Each time He came to the register He had on a different outfit, a different hairstyle, and a different expression. It can be difficult to see Christ in everyone when the line builds up out the door and the pressure to be less kind and reactionary begins to grow. However, when we do see Christ in each and every person it becomes that much easier to not react, to love honestly, and to turn a deaf ear to the devil who strives to end Christ’s love from be shared so freely.

INITIATION: MEN'S INITIATION The word initiation implies a new beginning, as the Latin initium suggests. By means of a rite of passage or transition, a person is separated from one social or religious status and incorporated into another. From a religious perspective, initiation may be seen as an encounter with the sacred.
