What Are You Hungry For?


What are you hungry for? What do you desire – and what desire lies beneath that desire – or within it? What does your wanting teach you about yourself; about what you love, what you fear, what is possible? How does your longing meet the world’s longing? How do you pray with your desires?
Blessing
Where the world of the hunger below you meets the hunger of the world within you: may you find yourself in this place.

Happiness is life.


When I ws 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life.  When I went to school they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up.  I wrote down 'happy'.  They told me I didn't understand the assignment, and I told them they didn't understand life. "  John Lennon

GOD IS HERE


                   O God, ever wakeful, ever vigilant,
         your protection and loving care are always with us.
                Even in times when evil seems rampant,
                       in times of natural disaster,
                       in times of anxiety or grief,
              you guard our going out and our coming in.
 Through Jesus Christ we know your grace is sufficient. Amen.
