Seventh Sunday after Epiphany

Musician Sea Raven Morse

For Meditation and Reflection:

   “God, wake me from the fog of my low expectations. Help me shake off the world’s despair, its pointless habits, desires, and attachments, its broken busyness, and the downward spiral of judging, consuming, and protecting myself. Give me the courage to trust that you are moving and acting, the courage to embrace the unimaginable. Give me the urgency to act, for now is the time, and the patience to wait for every moment.”             ~Steve Garnass-Holmes
