Contemplative insight from Mepkin Abbey, drawn from our daily liturgical readings and homily. Help us to pray, one thought per day.

Good Shepherd as Gate
God accessing His creatures
and creation, Him.

Apr 22

Belong to Jesus
as sheep to the Good Shepherd
good sheep who follow

Apr 21

where else do we go?
Only Christ is real food, drink
have faith, life in Him

Apr 20

Oh, what a journey!
From Saul, the persecutor,
To Paul, d'Apostle!

Apr 19

Towards communion
into the Body of Christ
Christ, the Bread of Life

Apr 18

Christ, the Bread of Life
Feeds us by the Father's will
till eternity

Apr 17

surrender and trust
no ifs, no buts, the Lord calls
just as did Stephen

Apr 16

The Lord satisfies
All of our human hunger
More so spiritual.

Apr 16

Rejoice, God's belov'd
Confidently hope in Him
His love never fades!

Apr 15

nothing's neglected
all needs are ministered to
no one's neglected
