Evening Prayer – 10 October 2017

The sun has set and the Vesper Lights flicker and glow 

When the world and politics overwhelm

When pastoral duties at times overwhelm

When death and suffering overwhelm

Lord, you send your angels among us

To remind us of the beauty and wonder of your creation 

To remind us of the depth of your love

To remind us of your continued presence 

It is especially delightful, Lord

When your angels are our four-legged neighbors 

For the wonder and beauty of your creation

For this sweet Yearling Elk who connected with me

For the reminders of your grace, I give thanks 

Lord, in your mercy, hear this prayer

Dona Nobis Pacem 

Grant Us Peace 

A wee prayer from the heart of your Padre…
