Good Evening Dear Family of Love!
I hope everyone had a good day ant that you managed to take time for rest and worship. It has been a quiet day here where I live and I was very glad for it. Peaceful days are what's needed with all the hullabaloo on social media and the media in general I'm inviting you all to begin taking a break from social media for two hours on Sunday to start. It will be a healing time for you and it will help you connect to God, your family, and the outdoors. Things on social media will not disappear in those two hours. Next Sunday we will begin a social media fast for two hours. and join in life and living. Tonight let us dial in to God by getting back to basics and do our Mindfulness 5+ and gentle breathing exercises. Tonight let's see how we do without the instructions and go deeper and meet God in our heart-homes. Make up your own meditation time and I will see you back here for further info in about 10 minutes. This means no checking any social media while you are concentrating on this meditation time.
How did you feel about not having any instructions?
How did you feel going deeper?
Did you check your social media or did you stay put?
Now let us be at prayer:
God of all people may we ever remember that everyone and everything is precious in your sight and you love and protect all with equality and with impartiality. May we remember that we are all chosen people of God because he made us.
God of all Creation may we hold everything that you made with reverence and that everything is holy.
God who made all animals, minerals, and vegetables. May we protect and stop misusing and abusing all that you have made. Help us to realize that when one thing is taken away or made extinct that we ourselves are on step closer to being and endangered species.
God who made us a family may we seek to be families and be united in love and in one heart and spirit.
God we pray this night for an end to all violence, terror, abuse, bullying, inequality, and all things that separate us one from another.
God we remember and pray for this day:
The least of these our family members.
Our family members in need of healing and comfort.
Our family members who are in mourning and in need of comfort and compassion.
