Reflection for February 10 2017
May you be held in love. May tenderness carry you. May the pain you know too well be lifted from you. May your heart’s heaviness be lightened by grace, May hope abound for you. May those who serve you care for you. May their expertise help you, Their compassion sustain you. May you know you are not alone, but always loved by God. May you see miracles and know you are one. May your courage give us courage. May your love hold us tenderly. And may you dwell in peace In the midst the depth the breadth of your being. Amen.
Reflection for February 03 2017
May we find a glow of light deep in the place of courage, just below the heart where the breath swells and the spine straightens. May we remember our strength and the strength that multiplies in the circle, in the crowd, in the people. May we kindle a fire of hope in our words and deeds stoked by our belief in freedom, justice and love. May we know the power of deep listening, find the balm of compassion, know the power of right timing, of right action. May courage find us worthy companions and accompany our walks, our commitments and our prayers.
