Monday Prayer

We began Monday morning in contemplative silence reflecting on this prayer poem by Anne Siddal, PBVM.

Let us give space
to what has not yet
been seen, to what is
waiting for our hospitality.
Let us trust ourselves
into the chaos out of which
the Spirit creates,
forms beyond our imaging.
Here, in the community
of uncertainty, we may hear
the whisperings of the mystic,
gaze in wonder at the artists’ work.
Here is a time, and a space
to be present to what
Mother God struggles to birth: an invitation
To watch and wait with hope.

We then listened to "By Breath" by Sara Thomsen
