Trustworthy? – a prayer during Lent Oftentimes it isn’t a question of how much trust you put in the Universe, or the Maker, or whatever noun you use here. More likely it is the case of how much trust that Creator puts in you. I am reflecting on a comment from a friend who said ...]]> http://sacredpauses.com/2012/02/trustworthy-a-prayer-during-lent/feed/ 3 http://sacredpauses.com/2011/12/the-new-day/#utm_source=feed&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=feed http://sacredpauses.com/2011/12/the-new-day/#comments Sun, 25 Dec 2011 18:50:30 +0000 Scribe http://sacredpauses.com/?p=1163 The New Day

I’m not sure if they still do, but in those early training school days of my retail career, I was up in suit-and-tie and on my way ...]]> http://sacredpauses.com/2011/12/the-new-day/feed/ 0 http://sacredpauses.com/2011/12/even-so-lord-patience-in-the-time-of-great-anticipation/#utm_source=feed&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=feed http://sacredpauses.com/2011/12/even-so-lord-patience-in-the-time-of-great-anticipation/#comments Thu, 15 Dec 2011 19:59:46 +0000 Scribe http://sacredpauses.com/?p=1142 Even So, Lord – patience in the time of great anticipation

Even So, Lord – patience in the time of great anticipation Maybe it is my own infirmity and my impatience with it – for some reason the daily news causes dis-ease in my soul this quiet Advent season. Presidential campaigns are  always a stressful time for me, more since our people have once again become ...]]> http://sacredpauses.com/2011/12/even-so-lord-patience-in-the-time-of-great-anticipation/feed/ 0 http://sacredpauses.com/2011/07/he-has-eyes-to-see-his-people-a-lectio-divino-call-to-prayer/#utm_source=feed&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=feed http://sacredpauses.com/2011/07/he-has-eyes-to-see-his-people-a-lectio-divino-call-to-prayer/#comments Fri, 22 Jul 2011 12:05:12 +0000 Scribe http://sacredpauses.com/?p=824 He has eyes to see his people – a lectio divino call to prayer

The concept is to have a short passage (most likely scripture) that is read ...]]> http://sacredpauses.com/2011/07/he-has-eyes-to-see-his-people-a-lectio-divino-call-to-prayer/feed/ 0 http://sacredpauses.com/2010/12/love-after-love/#utm_source=feed&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=feed http://sacredpauses.com/2010/12/love-after-love/#comments Wed, 01 Dec 2010 17:48:07 +0000 Scribe http://sacredpauses.com/?p=666 Love After Love
