Today’s Reflection: Christ, Coming closer to you is saying yes to a stretch
Of who I think I can love with this clumsy heart
Of who I think I can understand with this limited mind
Of who I think I could befriend with this small imagination
You stretch me inside to push me outside on mission – To love and listen To grow my world with your love.

Today’s Reflection:The Power of a Whisper Slow me down today, Lord, and whisper a word or two – or more, in the quiet of my mind and heart…
When I’m cursing myself or others, whisper words of blessing…
When I’m judging another’s words and deeds, whisper words of patience…
When my voice is still and silent, whisper words that I might speak…
When I’m saying much too much, whisper words to shut me up…
When I’ve failed and when I’ve sinned, whisper words of pardon…
When I’m facing loss and grief, whisper words of consolation…
When I’m stuck in my own foolishness, whisper words of wisdom…
When I’m confounded and confused, whisper words of counsel…
When I’m caught up in my lies, whisper words of truth.
When life is just too tough to take, whisper words of hope…
When my heart is broken, hurt and wounded, whisper words of healing…
When I’m at war with my neighbor or myself, whisper words of peace…
Slow me down, Lord, and help me find a quiet place to hear the whisper of your word…
Slow me down today, Lord, and whisper a word or two – or more, in the quiet of my mind and heart… Amen. — Rev. Austin Fleming. Morning Offering is a daily post by Joe Barkovich who lives in his hometown of Welland, Ontario. Daily photo by Joe Barkovich. Morning Offering is posted by 8 a. m.
