When was the last time you
received a card in your mailbox?
No, not your computer mailbox. I’m talking about handwritten,
pen to paper, tucked in an envelope with a stamp in the corner —
not a bill or junk mail! Was it a caring personal card, the very best
and “rightest” kind of mail, that pumped a smile into your soul?
We need to bring back this artful form of communication —
especially now as we shelter in place and seek socially distant
ways to “encourage one another and build each other up” (1
Thessalonians 5:11). Values and lifestyles have changed along with
countless comforting aspects of home life. Many were already gone
before the pandemic. Now, stuck at home, many of us can see how
empty our homes and our souls are.
