'The Peace of Wild Things'
When despair for the world grows in me
and I wake in the night at the least sound
in fear of what my life and my children’s lives may be,
I go and lie down where the wood drake
rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds.
I come into the peace of wild things
who do not tax their lives with forethought
of grief. I come into the presence of still water.
And I feel above me the day-blind stars
waiting with their light. For a time
I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.
-Wendall Berry 1934-2026

Summer gently fades into Autumn...creation reminds us of the length in our days. The sun will always rise and set; we have the honor in choosing what to appreciate about each new day. Amen.

Creating Grace,
as the day draws to an end, may the wonder and awe in every inch of life stretch our imagination. A new new year of education and growth begins; wrap all in safe keeping and give them space for the Divine Grace that knows no end. May Wisdom and Hope inspire open minds who are forever curious to learn! Amen.

May you see with tender eyes
The wounds of those before you.
May you hear with well-tuned ears
The unspoken needs of those whose voices are muted.
May you hold with gentle hands
The bodies and the spirits of those you care for.

May the beauty of soul,
The strength of spirit,
The wholeness of being
Lead you, inspire you
And let you know your own
Beauty of soul,
Strength of spirit,
Wholeness of being.

May you know that,
As you care for others,
God cares for you, sees you,
Holds you tenderly.

Amen.

The sacred holy found in ordinary days is a precious gift. All the world may change in the blink of an eye. Let peace bring you pause for gratitude and the reminder,
"Better one handful with tranquillity
than two handfuls with toil
and chasing after the wind." -Ecc 4:6. Amen.

Soon many creatures will be on the move from one end of the world to another. Adventures through all the seasons of life are built into our very being; it is always better, when times of change are met head on, together. Amen. "For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven." Ecc 3:1.

We can survive all of the breathtaking fireworks we stumble across in life remembering we are created in the image of the Holy, the Divine. How we react to the encounters of unplanned, wild explosions may very well be the difference between life and death. Who we include in our community matters. Every single soul adds another layer of wisdom. Amen.
