Weekly Thoughts

"Time is not ripe" — this is the excuse many people give for inaction. But no fully ripe time ever comes. A wise man said, "If we wait till the time is ripe, it may be rotten." If we wait for the ripe time, it may never come. The best time for any spiritual undertaking is now. The ideal time for any advance in human welfare is now.

Thoughts by the late Rev. Paul Osumi are selected weekly by his family.
