True prayer
“So true prayer demands that we be more passive than active; it requires more silence than words, more adoration than study, more concentration than rushing about, more faith than reason. We must understand thoroughly that true prayer is a gift from heaven to earth…” ~ Carlo Carretto

A day away
“Each person deserves a day away in which no problems are confronted, no solutions searched for. Each of us needs to withdraw from the cares which will not withdraw from us.” ~ Maya Angelou

Transforming Rest
Amidst all the pressure
to keep going and to keep going,
may you also take time to learn the art of being;
being Loved,
being Held,
being Seen,
being in the Presence
of the One
who calls you
to rest. ~ Morgan Harper Nichols
Fissures
“…through the fissures of our broken journeys, with pieces of our own hearts shattered on the ground, we journey by God’s grace into the New Creation. God sees beyond our shattered remains. He picks them up and sings a song over us.” ~ Makoto Fujimura
Do you hear the music?
Soul-stretching
