Saturday, the weekly reminder that even GOD had to top and rest!

  Luke 11:10 

  

everyone

who asks 

receives, & 

everyone 

who seeks 

finds,&

for everyone who knocks 

the door will be opened. 

I was reminded yesterday that AA’s 11th Step, improving our conscious contact with the God through the twin tools of prayer and meditation, beings with the word Sought.  The focus is not so much on the goal as in the seeking…   I have a whole picture file of doors and windows… in fact this blog was supposed to be entitled Doors and Windows but it was already taken I guess…. So I have Many doors to choose from, SO many - old ones, new ones, pretty ones. ones with bikes in front, one in Amsterdam  which I really like from my river trip with Dad and Sally that has a window reflecting the sky and clouds which, if youBut I chose this one because it doesn’t even show the door, just the steps up to it… Sometimes the seeking starts without even being able tho see the door…. 

Friday night

                                    Ecclesiasticus 11:2,3  

Do 

not 

praise 

individuals

for their good looks, or loathe anyone 

because of appearance alone. The bee is 

a small among flying creatures, but what it 

              produces is the best of sweet things.

TGIF

                                  Psalm 31:6

Weep-ing 

may 

spend 

the 

night, 

but joy comes in the morning. 

Thursday heading toward evening

     Based on Psalm 37:25 

 if we 

stumble, 

we shall 

not fall 

headlong,  

for the Lord 

holds us by the hand.

Thursday

                          Psalm 37:3 

     

     Put 

     your 

     trust 

     in the 

     Lord 

     and 

     do 

     good; 

     dwell 

     in the land 

     and feed on its riches.  

Wednesday Evening

                                        A Prayer in the Evening 

O God, you mani-fest in your serv-ants the signs of your presence; 

send upon us the spirit of love, 

that in companionship with one 

another your abounding grace may 

                                     increase among us…

Today we remember Henry Martyn, 1781- 1812, Episcopal priest, and the first English missionary in India and Persia, who translated both the Scriptures and The Prayer Book into Hindi and Persian. (How do you spell indefatigable?)

  Psalm 38:15a

in 

you 

O 

Lord, 

have 

I 
fixed 

my 

hope  

            Inspire in us a love like his, 

            eager 

            to 

            commit 

            both 

            life 

            and 

            talents 

            to 

            you 

            who 

            gave

            them
