Coat of Arms

Description

It is possible to live our lives hidden behind a protective façade. We allow people to see some of our imperfections, but may be reluctant to reveal who we really are. When we do that, our attempts at communication with others and especially with God seem a little like dropping a letter into a post box, where it may simply fall to the bottom and remain unnoticed and unread. On the other hand, we can turn a corner, and instead of hiding, live our lives honestly, as an open book before the world and God. When we do that, our lives become healthy and more fruitful. And when it comes to communicating with others and with God, it is as if we had a direct line – the kind we might expect to find if calling from a telephone booth.
