How to Take Smart Notes

Sönke Ahrens

**God the Comforter** Jesus, as a mother you gather your people to you, you are gentle with us as a mother with her children. Often you weep over our sins and our pride, tenderly you draw us from hatred and judgement. You comfort us in sorrow and bind up our wounds, in sickness you nurse us and with pure milk you feed us. Jesus, by your dying, we are born to new life, by your anguish and labour we come forth in joy. Despair turns to hope through your sweet goodness, through your gentleness, we find comfort in fear… Lord Jesus, in your mercy heal us, in your love and tenderness, remake us. In your compassion, bring grace and forgiveness, for the beauty of heaven, may your love prepare us. *St. Anselm of Canterbury* *Celebrating Common Prayer: A Version of the Daily Office SSF, 232*

Realism excludes any consideration of change: selfishness remains selfishness, generosity remains generosity. The economy is a system based on selfishness, not on generosity, and Christianity must surrender to this reality by keeping generosity in its proper place, which is in spheres of life other than the economic.
