Morning Offering: 11. 21. 24

Today’s Reflection: Prayer 

Jesus of story,
Weaver of words,
Master of metaphor,
Whose expansiveness cannot be contained,
We ask you to animate our imaginations today.
Soften our rigidity,
Quiet our quest for certainty,
And fortify our faith in Your poetry,
Your endless knowability,
Open to each and every one of us.

In Love, we pray.
Amen. — Katie Davis-Crowder

Today’s Reflection: I expect to pass through this world but once.

Any good, therefore, that I do

or any kindness that I can show to any person,

let me do it now.

Let me not defer or neglect it,

for I shall not pass this way again. — Stephen Grellet

Morning Offering: 06. 20. 24

Today’s Reflection:  We Pray to You, O Lord,
Help us to honor our discomfort
And bring our confusion to You
Especially when we do not understand
Instead of sinking into ourselves
To remember our priorities and our call
to love and serve you by loving and serving others
Especially those often viewed as the lowest, the last, and the least
Amen. —Carl Caceres, SJ

Today’s Reflection: Silence consists, above all, in being quiet so as to be always ready to receive something greater. Leave your analyses and the avalanche of your deductions.  Allow silence to be manifested within your interior self. — Bodmin Hermit
