In Everything Give Thanks

"'I have just four words to leave with you.  Four words that have spoken volumes of truth into my life.'

He wanted the words to stay in the room, to remain long after he had gone.  Though no one wished to hear Paul's radical injunction, it had to be told.

'In everything, give thanks.'

That was the lifeboat in any crisis.  Over and over again, he had learned this, and over and over again, he had to be reminded.

'In everything, Father?'

'In everything.'"
