Everything we do in this life follows time.  We set our alarm for a certain time.  We need to be in school/class at a certain time.  We have lunch at a certain time and we go to bed at a certain time.

This morning on this the Feastday of St. Nektarios, Fr. Demetri shares a personal story about a miracle that happened to his own mother.  The reflection/words that he is reading this morning were written by his dad, Fr. Peter of blessed memory.

Are you a chasm or a bridge?
