Today’s Reflection: GARDENER’S PRAYER – Lord, bless my little plot of land, and the strength with which I’m tilling it, bless the seed I’m carefully planting and the prayers I’m sowing with it. Bless the days and shortening nights, and the hopes of my small barn.— Bodmin Hermit, a Franciscan hermit in Cornwall, England

Today’s Reflection: Be a gardener,
Dig a ditch.
Toil and sweat,
And turn the earth upside down
And seek the deepness
And water the plants in time.
And make sweet floods run
And noble and abundant fruits to spring.
Take this food and drink
And carry it to God
As your true worship. — Julian of Norwich

Today’s Reflection: Be a Gardener. Dig a ditch. Toil and sweat. And turn the earth upside down. And seek the deepness. And water plants in time. Continue this labor. And make sweet floods to run, and noble and abundant fruits to spring. Take this food and drink, and carry it to God as your true worship. — Julian of Norwich. (1342-c.1416, Christian mystic, theologian, spiritual counsellor).

Thank you God for sun and showers,
Thank you for each lovely flower,

Through all these you speak to me. — Unattributed.
