When taking on a new task, looking for a way to make a difference in life, forming a life philosophy, or deepening your spiritual understanding, consider The Five C’s, an old approach to a new way of living.
Well, maybe not old. In fact, the list fell into my lap about ten minutes ago. Gifts at 4:02 a.m. should not be ignored.
I suspect the life list is a second cousin to an anonymous quotation that got caught in the revolving door of my waking mind. The quote says about faith: “We are not asked to be heroic. It is enough to be consistent.” So, to honor the memory and mission of Jesus,
one must be: Concerned, Courageous, Consistent, Constant and Committed.
Concerned: Feel empathy; put yourself in someone else’s shoes.
Courageous: There are always obstacles to doing good; stand up
Consistent: Don’t check which way the wind is blowing; the same yesterday, today and tomorrow.
Constant: Seven days a week; twelve months a year; no days off.
Committed: It’s a lifestyle, not a leisure activity.
The Gospel is best delivered and demonstrated by people like you and me. Heroic credentials not required. We qualify.
Press on.

Care might be a subset to the big five C’s.
I will try to have a ‘C’ day. Thanks for the 4:02 thinking.
