  5. There where you are ~ you will find God.

  6. God in the ordinary moments each day, the breath of our living and the dying we face. God in our dreaming the Light ever near. The hope in our brokenness and fear. God in the rising from every pain, there in the arms that reach out to embrace.

  7. There where you are you will find God (X3) Right there where you are ~ you will find God… Our Good God

  8. God in our footsteps when we dance with the lame. The voice in the stillness and the giver of grace. God in our blindness when we wake and we see Christ in the face of the lost and the weak

Today! May we live into the Gift of this time together. May we allow the Spirit of God to release the gifts within us for Mission. May we be open to the Spirit dwelling in the midst of all life... Amen

  13. No one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God lives in us, and God’s love comes to fullness in us. 1 John 4:12

  14. “That which is Christ-like within us shall be crucified. It shall suffer and be broken. And that which is Christ-like within us shall rise up. It shall love and create.”Leunig

  15. Let us Live in such a way that when we die our Love will survive and continue to grow Amen

  16. The Word is Grace and Beauty – The Love of God revealed. And may we be filled with Reverence - May we be graced with Light.

  17. Love is bornWith a dark and troubled faceWhen hope is deadAnd in the most unlikely placeLove is born:Love is always born. God help us to live slowly:To move simply:To look softly:To allow emptiness:To let the heart create for us.Amen. God rest us.Rest that part of us which is tired.Awaken that part of us which is asleep.God awaken us and awake within us.Amen.

  18. We simplify our lives.We live gladly with less.We let go the illusion that we can possess.We create instead.We let go the illusion of mobility.We travel in stillness. We travel at home.By candlelight and in stillness,In the presence of flowers,We make our pilgrimage.We simplify our lives.

  19. We give Thanks For the Gift of this Day… …As we gather around the Word ‘God of Light And Counsellor of Hearts Grant to us Your Grace and Guidance Amen’

  20. Will you give me your life forever? Will you carry my cross ev'ry day? Will you walk in the light of my presence? Will you follow the truth of my ways? Will you love me as I have loved you? Will you live with me the darkness as I die? For the moon and the stars will be gone like the night. And the sun will be shining on you. Like the purest of gold in the furnace, Is your love strong enough to endure? Does your faith carry on through the shadows? Does it shine in the night for the world? Can you walk in the footprints of silence, Through the wilderness sands in the sun, From the desert of doubt and temptation, To the glorious mountain of fire?
