I received some very sad news this morning, and a heart that was already praying is now truly and deeply drawn to prayer.
Today I am waiting and praying.
Praying:
- for some who are grieving
- for those sorting out next steps
- for hurting friends and family
- for new relationships forming
- while waiting and inviting Jesus to come
- with longing
- and with hope
- knowing peace
- and longing for peace to grow within me
- for things that can't be expressed in words
- with gratefulness for friends, scattered around the world though they may be
- while pondering things to come and wondering about thing still uncertain
- with gratefulness for family, in all of it's odd forms
- remembering the feast celebrated today "The Immaculate Conception" and Gabriel's words to Mary, "you who are highly favored" and Mary's response "may it be as you have said."
- for new life more abundant in so many forms
- because my heart cannot help but cry out.
