The Wisdom of Water Striders
An Online Service with Reverend Stephen Shick
Not long ago, I enjoyed watching water striders at the quiet edges of ponds, lakes, and streams. Those edges are frozen now. Yet, I carry the memory of these tiny fragile creatures into this season of darkness. In this season the world has gone mad with violence and hatred, and mindless climate warming living. Sunday I’ll share the joy and hope the memory of Water Striders offers us and how that gift is reflected in wisdom and religious teachings.
