Life is not a straight line from childhood to adulthood. Life has
bumps and curves; obstacles and detours; desert times and tsunamis;
celebrations and sorrows. Life can go from glorious to calamitous in just a
moment. How do Christian saints navigate the complexities of life? William W.
How wrote the hymn we always sing on this day: For all the Saints. He served in
the Church of England in the 1800s, and became known as the "poor man's
bishop" and "the children's bishop," for his work among the
destitute in the London slums and the factory workers in west Yorkshire. He
describes all that God can be for a faithful person in vs 2;
Thou wast their rock, their refuge, and their might,
Thou, Christ, the hope that put their fears to flight;
’mid gloom and doubt, their true and shining light.
Alleluia, alleluia!
Today we remember the saints who have been part of our lives and
say, “Alleluia, alleluia!"
