Who can pray who does not make time for staring out windows?
~ Murray Bodo OFM
Window
A song rises
Out of the heart
The song rises,
The mind searching
For notes
To capture
its flight. ~ Murray Bodo O.F.M.
What song rises within you?
Just feel
“If I really wanted to pray I’ll tell you what I’d do. I’d go out into a great big field all alone or in the deep, deep woods and I’d look up into the sky —up—up—up—into that lovely blue sky that looks as if there was no end to its blueness. And then I’d just feel a prayer. ~ L.M.Montgomery, Anne of Green Gables
Where do you feel prayer?
Sabbath
A world without a sabbath would be like a [person] without a smile, a summer without flowers, a homestead without a garden. ~ Henry Ward Beecher
How would you describe a world without sabbath?
Light of truth
The way to right wrongs is to turn the light of truth upon them. ~ Ida B Wells
Where do you shine the light?
Morning rise
May my mind come alive today
To the invisible geography
That invites me to new frontiers,
To break the dead shell of yesterdays,
To risk being disturbed and changed. ~ Jon O’Donahue
How do you awaken to the landscape of this day?
