Neither Silver Nor Gold

In keeping the Easter Season alive, without being bogged down by our daily routine, the Church provides the stories related in the Acts of the Apostles of the marvelous power of the Holy Spirit so active in the early days of Christianity.  Compressed into one short book, it seems as if the Holy Spirit was more active then than now.  That might be true, but nevertheless, the Holy Spirit is still at work; miracles at all levels are happening. We need to open our eyes and hearts to see them.  The goodness in people, especially the young, who respond to invitations to help others, learn more about their faith, who give hours and hours of service as a result of a mass movement across the nation in schools which serves as a catalyst for life-long service.  We, like Peter, have neither silver nor gold to give in great abundance to help others, but we do have a huge ability to love and give from hearts whose capacity knows no limits.  How much can we love today?  How much of ourselves can we give?
