Dear Family of Love and Pilgrims on our Journey!
I hope you all are endeavoring to Keep the Faith his Friday fearlessly with out Fretting and that you are well on your way in preparation for Self and Sabbath Care Weekend. It isn't always easy but I think once we get int the habit of preparing for the weekend it will help us direct our focus more clearly. I'm reminded of an old saying "Thoughts breed deeds, deeds breed habits, habits make character and character makes man!" These ingredients may be seen as a chain of formation. We all must continue to strive in being formed more fully into the image and likeness of God. We must remember too that "God made us and not we ourselves!" So let us make it a habit to begin setting a time for preparation. Don't forget we get to do our Worry/ Sabbath Box. We need to take a cue from Pope Francis and spend more time in prayer and meditation so that we may have lives that are more fully complete in God. Tonight let us take a journey back and do a virtual labyrinth walk and enjoy letting our fingers and mouse do the walking as we allow ourselves to rest deeply and go deeper into contemplation with God. Every time you make a turn on one of the curly ques say "I let all my worries and anxieties go to you O God!
Now let us join together in prayer:
Gracious and loving God we pray for a peaceful rest this night and that we may awaken refreshed and renewed in the morning
We pray for the healing of your broken and fragile world. We pray for an end to violence and terror of any kind.
We pray for all of our vulnerable family members remembering those who have been abused and persecuted.
We pray for all who are ill and in need of healing of bodies minds, and spirits.
We pray that we may continue to knit a circle of love, justice, mercy and peace around each of us this night and that we may lovingly encircle our family members as God encircles us with God's love.
We pray for seasonable weather and that God's Cathedral of life may receive much needed rain in all the drought parched areas of the world and especially in California.
We pray for all who protect us from harm and all emergency rescue personnel.
We take these moments to pray and give thanks and lift up these our prayers in the most Holy Name of Jesus. Amen.
++++++++
Good Night Dear Family of Love. I love you! Rest Gentle in God's encircling arms. Let God draw you in as you slumber and as you awaken to a new day. I give thanks to God for you this night and always. Remember tomorrow is Self-Care Saturday.
With an ever encircling love,
