Prayer for Today:
With all our breath, with all our energy,
with the light that is within us
may we turn to You O God
for guidance, for courage to make change,
for willingness to "play big" as, and only as,
You would have us do.
For the blessings You have bestowed
thanks. May we be a blessing to others.
May it be so.

"What are you looking for?" -John 1:38

"Whoever can see through all fear will always be safe." --Tao Te Ching

"God won't be lived like some light morning.

stand hunched and pry him loose in tunnels."--Rainer Maria Rilke
