Ripples in the Pond a Virtual Meditation with the ripples !

Dear Family of  Love!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Sunday and day of rest. Happy March 1st! Rabbit Rabbit and all that.  In our continuing effort to stop the glorification of busy we will take another virtual meditation with a  new picture and this one will feature the ripples in the pond and you will find it fairly easy to follow. Using your mouse we will go from the center out and then from the out to the center with prayers. 

Gracious God You are the center of our hearts, lives, and being, help us to center ourselves in this meditation and prayer time.

Let us place our mouse on the droplet and pray that we may be centered in God.
The First ripple we pray for our relationships with God and Our Family Members
The Second ripple we pray for our neighbors and all those who are in need of neighborly attention.
The Third ripple we pray for ourselves and that we may learn and grow stronger in loving God, our neighbors, enemies, and ourselves. 
The Fourth ripple we hover our mouse and pray for God's Cathedral of life and that we may be good stewards of the earth.
The Fifth ripple we pray for peace in the world and that we may be peace makers.
The  Sixth ripple we  hover our mouse and remember all those who have died and those who are mourning.
The Seventh ripple we remember and pray that we may acknowledge the sacredness of life and that each day is holy.
Coming back in we pray for children that they may be protected from harm.
We pray for strong bonds of love and friendship among all faith communities.
We pray for peace in our hearts, minds, and spirits as we prepare for the week ahead.
We pray for all those who are ill and those who are in need of healing.
We pray for all the least of these and that we may lovingly respond to their needs.
As we close this meditation we hover our mouse on the last few ripples being still before God and  returning to the center we acknowledge our need an dependence upon God and each other.

Now if you have time, try these and make up your own prayers!

This is our listening music for this evening:John Rutter -Gloria

Now take time to pray these prayers that are used quite frequently;

That is our meditation time for tonight! Tomorrow I will write more starting with the 10th ripple in the pond.

Good Night Dear Family of Love! I love you ! I hope everyone has a blessed night and rest. Tomorrow is You Matter Monday! You matter to God and to me!


Love and blessings!
