The tears are coming.
Yes, it really makes you cry when a person is so hypercritical and ruthless with himself and every mistake is seen as a personal failure.
How much pressure, how much fear is at play, and how little room to relax and be happy.
I think of a story told by jesus. A farmer spreads his seed with full hands, but many things go wrong, some fall on rocky ground, others under the thorns, but some fall on good land and bring a rough harvest.

I can trust that I don’t have to be perfect to do well, and that I don’t have to be perfect to be loved by god.

ringing the bell

It is a ceremony full of moments of being on the way, but also of pausing and coming to rest: since time immemorial, fronleichnam has had a special status in kronach as one of the most beautiful church festivals in the cycle of the year.
This year, too, the residents and the city administration not only decorated the processional route with ornate altars, flags and rich floral decorations, but also adorned many houses with candles and sacred motifs.
The magnificent sun monstrance, in the middle of which the host is shown as a sign of christ's presence, was carried through the streets by regional dean thomas teuchgraber. At four altars, the cathedral chapter gave the blessing with the monstrance and the blessed sacrament.

"Today on our way through the streets of kronach the bells are with us", according to the pastor. When we look at the radiant monstrance with the holy bread, perhaps it rings – proverbially – in us: "is perhaps the dear god coming now??"
If we asked ourselves this question every time we rang the doorbell, we would certainly be more attentive to many situations, more attentive to the people we meet and talk to.
The second altar, which was erected at the christus church, was a sign of ecumenism. For the liturgical celebration, the "charismatic renewal" was there kronach voiced prayers and petitions to their main concern "love" and "unity in front of.
