Sundays

This day is coming to an end, the winding down is in full progress. Sundays are a day that begin very early. It seems as though it has been many miles since that alarm clock went off at 4;15am. It has been a very good day.

My mind is weary. It occurs to me that I preached two sermons today and taught a class. I think that my thinker is done. This is a day that I am very grateful for the community of faith that is St. John's. I am grateful that my "thinker" worked really well. It seems time to say Good Night.

Gracious God, Thank you for the cold snow that is a stark white, a clean contrast to the dark hues of leaves and mud.

Thank you for the blessing of the sun as it shines through the branches, and dance off both the ice and the open water.

Gracious God, Thank you for all the blessings in this life.

Please Help me to grow in the light of you today. Help me to live into the instrument that you need me to be.

Gracious God, Let us feel the healing power of your grace in body, mind ad spirit. Amen

Sleep well. All

  1. Your energy was truly alive during yesterday's sermon. Thank you for encouraging me to be more aware of temptataions in my life, and the hope and strength God offers in dealing with those temptations. You are an inspiration in my life.
