From the Pastors Desk……
Let us begin a
meaningful Lent. Recently I read these words from an unknown
author. I encourage you to meditate on them as we begin the
Lenten journey.
“In T.S. Eliot’s poem “Ash Wednesday”, there is a phrase…”where
shall the word be found, where will the word resound? Not here,
there is not enough silence…” How can we create enough silence
during Lent? How can we forge time for silence so that God can
find us attentive to the still, small voice? In another of T. S.
Eliot’s poems, the poet seeks the “still point in our turning
world.” Where is the still point in your turning world? In an
early morning walk. In a daily swim. Sitting by the fire.
Reading scripture. Fasting for a meal. Holding a friend’s hand
silently. Try silence in your prayer time, echoing the words of
the ancient prayer: “O God of peace, you have taught us that in
returning and rest we may be saved, in quietness and in
confidence shall be our strength, by the might of Your spirit
lift us we pray to your presence, where we may be still and know
that you are God, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.” --
Peace and joy in Christ, Sid
