Kindness and Love

I will never forget an interview I heard on NPR with Rowan LeCompte who started designing stained glass windows for the Washington National Cathedral when he was just 16 years old. Scott Simon interviewed him April 11, 2009. Then at the age of 84, LeCompte was still working on windows for the Cathedral. Simon asked him, “Do you believe in God?” LeCompte replied, “I believe in kindness and love, and there are those who say that those are God. I don’t know but I respect and love kindness and love and I worship them. And if I am worshipping God, I am delighted.” 

Kindness and love — what I believe after the season of discernment and contemplation — are what are revealed with Easter. For God so loved the world.
