Evening Prayer and Reflection – 23 July 2021

The sun has long ago set and the Vesper Lights flicker and glow

It has been a busy day for us

Denise has been busy putting the final touches on our training event for Sunday

We also managed to put together a TV stand for our new smart TV

In the midst of the busyness of the evening I was able to enjoy Sister Moon’s glorious showing

It reminded me of the words of Thomas Merton from his book, Waters of Siloe —

Forest and field, sun and wind and sky, earth and water, all speak the same silent language, reminding the monk that he is here to develop like the things that grow all around him… (p. 274)

Thankful for Merton’s reminder, I lift this humble prayer to you

Dona Nobis Pacem

Grant Us Peace

A wee prayer from the heart of your Padre…
