Steinbeck

I finished reading The Grapes of Wrath on Christmas day. With the recent financial meltdown and the economic turmoil we are experiencing, I thought it would be an appropriate read. It is a well written book, but a little dirty. It is a very depressing story and my heart goes out to all those who are experiencing similar situations of poverty, displacement, cruelty, uncertainty, and sorrow.



At Christmas time when we are enjoying Faith, fellowship, family, and food, it really puts our abundant blessings in perspective.



For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.
2 Corinthians 8:9
