Running out of Battery Power is sometimes a very good thing!




Dear Family of Love,

I hope everyone had a wonderful and spirit-filled Keeping the Faith Friday Fearlessly Without Fretting and that we all are well on the way in preparation for- Self-Care Saturday and Sabbath Rest on Sunday. On today's Infinity Walk tonight my phone battery power died. This would normally be upsetting but running out of battery power is sometimes a very good thing! It allows us to tune in without having an electronic device handy and get in touch with God's Cathedral of life, our breathing, our heart beats, our family members around us, and yes the list is endless! What is on your list? This might be a good place to start tonight on our meditation. Tonight we will not have any musical selections just the sounds of our hearts beating, our breathing, and if you don't have the TV on (Why would you have the TV on when it is mediation time?) , the sounds your house is making and the occasional sounds from the outdoors floating in.  Set the timer and close your eyes and listen.

God help us to unplug and find ourselves listening for what you have to tell us in your still small voice.

God we pray that we may seek times of silence and rest without having to have noise  to comfort and distract us.

God we pray for simpler times when we knew how to be silent and meditative.

God we pray for all of our family members who lack food, clothing, shelter, and proper medical care.

God we pray for the people of Baltimore, Nepal, and all areas that have been affected by civil unrest and natural disaster.

God we pray for peace in this your fragile and broken world that love and peace may prevail and that  we may become peacemakers and Children of God.

God we pray for all who are traveling this weekend and especially all of our family members who walk and do not have reliable transportation.

God we give thanks to day for_______________________

God we pray for ourselves and on behalf of others for____________________________

God we lift up these our prayers to you in the Name of Jesus your only son. Amen.

Good Night Dear Ones! Don't forget to place your worries, anxieties, fears, in the Worry/Sabbath Box and leave them there.  I love you and Give God Thanks for you this night and always!

With love to the brim and overflowing,

Sara
