Season of Creation — Day 21
"We are part of and immersed in a oneness, a sacred order of all things. God is in the falling leaf, the family cooking food for their grieving neighbours and in the quiet river reflecting unkempt and uncombed willow tresses. Through prayer I notice that all is connected. I sometimes listen deeply and sometimes act with compassion. Some days I am impatient , critical and brusque. I, too, am beloved and immersed in God."
Kaaren Mathias in "Looking Out and In" in TM Issue 260 June 2021: 32
Entangle us in your oneness, creating God,
so that the bonds of kinship among all life
become real and precious
such that we want only to nurture and protect them.
And for a laugh:
