Description
As human beings, we were created for connection first and foremost. Without meaningful connection to God, ourselves, and others, our quality of being and quality of life will diminish. So in these times of social distancing, we must look to new ways (which might just be ancient ways) of fostering connection. And in the power of God’s constant redemption, new rhythms of connection will bring about deeper relationship that extends far beyond the pandemic of COVID-19. So every now and then, I want to offer a simple moment of connection, a time where you might grow in self-awareness, grow in God-awareness, and even hold in loving prayer those around you both known and unknown. Take the next few moments to set aside work, entertainment, cooking, cleaning, whatever it might be, to foster a time of meaningful connection in stillness and in prayer… Father, Spirit, Son Lead me down the path of stillness That I might know that you are God, And that you are good. I still my soul before you, I slow my breath, in and out, I rest in your presence. With courage I hold my fear before you With love I hold my friends, my family before you With a mustard seed of faith I hold this world before you. Come with healing O God Come with wisdom O God Come with connection O God In this time of crisis This time of pandemic Work in and through us your people Through stillness Through prayer Through empathy Through action For your glory And our good We pray Amen.
