DISCPLESHIP: 'None of you can become my disciples if you do not give up all your possessions.' (Luke 14:33) Jesus asks of us strong moral decisions, but they mostly have to do with changing ourselves, not trying to change other people. Ready for change? youtube.com/watch?v=OIJaLuGe…

Travel lightly this day. May your footprint be minimal on the Earth’s resources, and gentle on others’ heart spaces. Travel lightly this day. In Jesus’s name we pray.

Quaker Patricia McBee wrote of the old Quaker advice to “keep low”: “To keep low is to be teachable and open to the workings of the Spirit. … To keep low is to be taught by everyone we meet: children, bus drivers, the folks who disagree with us …, government officials.”

From God’s perspective, one hidden act of repentance, one little gesture of selfless love, one moment of true forgiveness is all that is needed to bring God from his throne to run to his returning son and to fill the heavens with sounds of divine joy. (Henri Nouwen)

#talkedtotheboss There is a love, a beauty, a mercy that walks with you every step of your life’s journey. You didn’t earn it & you cannot make it go away; it is a gift you can embrace or ignore. Today, pray for the grace to be conscious of this gift, ultimately embrace it

Amen
Our Father, Who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name; Thy kingdom come; Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; & forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us; & lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

Yes, love is a real magician. One has only to love, and what one loves becomes beautiful. – Tolstoy, Sept 22 1895

Out of the wounds: rise up. Be free to be who you are called to be! With God’s help explore wounds: go gently. Give thanks where you have found healing, growth, insight. If raw: be honest with God about how you feel-no sugarcoating. Then rest as God’s compassion flows over you.

Praying for peace, forgiveness and a better future, without continued bloodshed, for every man, woman and child in #Palestine and #Israel. #PalestineUnderAttack #IsraelUnderFire
Our minds are often snared by ‘what if’ thoughts and transported to the land of regret with ‘if only’ thoughts. Neither are helpful nor necessarily true. What is true is this moment. Precisely this moment. As you breathe in and as you breathe out. Here, God meets you with love.

Pore over the floor rather than walk straight across it. The day is often a fluster of: hurrying, doing, moving through tasks though not always aware of it. Autopilot territory. What happens if we stop? Breathe deep. Look up, down. What might you notice? Any sign of the Divine?

Trees. Paths. Life. Slowly pray ‘Our Father’. With God, review the day. Notice where you felt alive/energised - what were you doing? Any stuff that left you feeling tired/drained? What about activities on autopilot? Be still. Let God reveal what needs to be revealed. Listen.
