Walk with Trust
Trinity Sunday
There was a Pharisee named Nicodemus, a leader of the Jews. He came to Jesus by night and said to him, "Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher who has come from God; for no one can do these signs that you do apart from the presence of God." Jesus answered him, "Very truly, I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God without being born from above." Nicodemus said to him, "How can anyone be born after having grown old? Can one enter a second time into the mother's womb and be born?" Jesus answered, "Very truly, I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God without being born of water and Spirit. What is born of the flesh is flesh, and what is born of the Spirit is spirit. Do not be astonished that I said to you, 'You must be born from above.' The wind blows where it chooses, and you hear the sound of it, but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes. So it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit." Nicodemus said to him, "How can these things be?" Jesus answered him, "Are you a teacher of Israel, and yet you do not understand these things?
"Very truly, I tell you, we speak of what we know and testify to what we have seen; yet you do not receive our testimony. If I have told you about earthly things and you do not believe, how can you believe if I tell you about heavenly things? No one has ascended into heaven except the one who descended from heaven, the Son of Man. And just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of Man be lifted up, that whoever believes in him may have eternal life.
"For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish but may have eternal life.
"Indeed, God did not send the Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him."
John 3:1-17

We all need security,
and yet to be fully alive we also need to take risks.
Too much security stifles us,
while too much insecurity brings fear and anguish.

Rotarians on the move!
For
our Friday meeting, some of our Rotary members took a field trip on the West
RTD Light Rail
from Golden
to Union Station to view ART-N-TRANSIT.
Public
art work has been installed at transit facilities to create a sense of
community and
to
celebrate the historical richness of the many neighborhoods.
The
art pieces include 15 free-standing or wall pieces, 28 wind screens, and 35
relay houses.
Six
of the relay houses were designed by two of our Rotary Club members.
“Tread
Lightly” is a series of seven boats that “tread” across the Oak Station plaza.
Sheridan
Station has “Gift of Rain” which reflected sunlight while we were there.
“Interconnectivity”
is at Perry Station. The steel inner parts have LED lights
that
light up at night.

Station.
We
even saw a live bunny in the field behind this relay box.
I
couldn’t continue the tour because I needed to get back to Evergreen
for
a Memories in the Making class at Life Care.
