Contemplative insight from Mepkin Abbey, drawn from our daily liturgical readings and homily. Help us to pray, one thought per day.
There was bread for all
Not only for the body
nourishes the soul
Feed the multitude
From scarce human resources
Enriched by God's love
Apr 14
Christ's conversation
continue to encourage
offers word of peace
Aware of God's love
We cannot keep from speaking
Everywhere we are
Grief tears blind Mary
Christ Risen calls her by name
Transforms, uplifts her
Dec 2
Just be like children
Open, trusting, and sincere
Meet the source of life.
Dec 1
Meet God, who seeks us
Ushers us into Advent
coming and going
We know what we lack
May we as well be grateful
For all God's blessings
persevere with hope
though in the face of all fears
love overcomes hate...
Nov 24
Life entanglements
one gives way to another
only God remains...
