“It doesn’t have to be the blue iris, it could be weeds in a vacant lot, or a few small stones; just pay attention, then patch a few words together and don’t try to make them elaborate, this isn’t a contest but the doorway into thanks, and a silence in which another voice may speak.” ― Mary Oliver, "Praying" from Thirst, 2006
This is the story we tell of how the church started: Fifty days after Easter, everyone was together. Suddenly: a deafening roar of wind Suddenly: flames of inspiration Suddenly: every language under the sky speaking, shouting, rejoicing! Filled with the Spirit Our old ones will dream dreams! Our young ones will see visions! All God’s children will prophesy! Come, friends, let us breathe deeply the breath of life as we worship this morning.
We gather to be reminded, reminded that the heart of the cosmos is love. We gather to be rooted, rooted and grounded in love. We gather to proclaim, that nothing— nothing living or dead, angelic or demonic, today or tomorrow, high or low, thinkable or unthinkable —absolutely nothing can separate us from the love of God. Alleluia! Amen.
