Contemplative insight from Mepkin Abbey, drawn from our daily liturgical readings and homily. Help us to pray, one thought per day.
* St Scholastica
God draws close to us
Jesus draws close to the sick
Offering healing
Wholeness, holiness
Live as God's image-likeness
day by day by day
Selfish to selfless
Little tweak may do the trick
Or we may be tricked
bleeding, leaking life
just a touch of His garment
faith feat and life surged
bleeding, leaking life
just a touch of His garment
faith feat and life surged
* St Blaise
Let everyone know
Christ fulfills God's promises
Overwhelming life
* Presentation of the Lord in the Temple
He comes unnoticed
Recognized by those who pray
The presence of God
Navigate life's seas
Cruising the uncertainties
Safe only in Christ
Words abound around
Discern what you hear and say
Spread only the best
The measure you give, you get
Listen, be receptive
dispose the heart to God's Truth
Resist not His will
