Book: The Lives We Actually Have: 100 Blessings for Imperfect Days : Kate Bowler & Jessica Richie
Poem by Edwina Gately:
If at any moment in your life you turned to God in yearning,
that moment is held by God for all eternity jealously guarded and kept in love.
Though it may dim and fade from your awareness and memory
God in delerious delight, can never forget nor let go of that moment.
And God will wait, longing, for your return.
“To stand before the face of God—that is our vocation... No human eye can see what God does in the soul during hours of inner prayer. It is grace upon grace. "
Closing prayer from Psalm:
Create in us clean hearts, O God:
and renew a right spirit within us.
Do not cast us out from your presence:
do not take your holy spirit from us.
O give us the gladness of your help again:
and support us with a willing spirit. Amen.
