Questions for us to ponder and heart homes to warm
Dear Family of Love and Pilgrims on Our Journey!
I hope you all have had a wonderful and wonder-filled Wednesday. Where has our journey brought us this week? Are our feet touching holy ground Are we walking in the way that Christ commands us? Are our actions based on radical love and welcome ? Are our lives rooted in a familyhood that is amazingly inclusive and sees in each other God made manifest? Are we living without hate, violence, abuse, and bullying? Who are we? Where are we? Are our voices speaking lovingly to one another? Yes, that means even to those are our enemies, those who hate us, and don't even get along with. As we pray and ponder these questions may we open and expand our heart homes by allowing God in to warm them, empower them, and to love them in amazing ways. Before we enter into this time of meditation let us begin by walking with our mouse and do a virtual labyrinth walk.
Gracious and loving God we pray that as we walk this virtual labyrinth we may calm our minds so that we may enter into this most holy time of q and a. May our answers to the questions we are about to ponder lead us more deeply in listening and in conversation with you. We pray that our hearts and heart homes may be expanded and warmed so that we may go out into the world that you created and be peacemakers and show your love and light to a fragile and broken world and see you in each face and acknowledge them as our family members. Amen.
Here again are our questions to ponder in our hearts and heart homes:
Where has our journey brought us this week?
Are our feet touching holy ground?
Are we walking in the way that Christ commands us?
Are our actions based on radical love and welcome ?
Are our lives rooted in a familyhood that is amazingly inclusive and sees in each other God made manifest?
Are we living without hate, violence, abuse, and bullying?
Who are we?
Where are we?
Are our voices speaking lovingly to one another?

Let us pray,
God we pray that the journey you have planned for us my lead us to you and in your service to a fragile and broken world.
God we pray that wherever we set our feet we may know that it is holy ground, for a holy people, a holy family, a holy life, a holy time, a holy love with love energy empowering us to be.
God we pray that we may have courage to walk in the ways that Christ commands us. We pray that ever action we do on this path may be guided by love, mercy,justice, and peace.
God we pray that our actions may be based upon radical love and welcome and that we may not fear each other only love and compassionately bind us as one.
God we pray that we may be truly be rooted in familyhood that is amazingly inclusive and sees in each other God made manifest. That no one will feel left out and made to feel like they don't belong or are wanted.
God we pray that we may live without being hateful, violent, abusive, and the need to bully. We pray for an end to all forms of violence and that love may be the force that will enlighten and change the world for good in positive and life giving ways.
God we pray that as we spend time with you we may begin to know who we are.
God we pray that we may know where we are with you and each other and that we may be guided by your GPS system.
God we pray that we may use our voices lovingly to speak to one another and that when we are called to do so we may speak truth to power and let Justice Roll down.
God we pray that our hearts and heart homes may be warmed by your love and that we may spend this time of prayer, listening, and in conversation with you with love energy and gentle and peaceful minds.
We pray these our additional prayers_____________________________________
We lift up these our prayers and thanksgivings in the name of Christ our Lord. Amen.
