Agenda TBA

May my heart be open to the new.
May my spirit be steadfast in the face of challenge.
May I walk in humility with a grateful heart…and be glad all my days.

Sometimes I cannot find the words for what I’m feeling about the day, about some situation or about my life… But when words come, I am blessed with a greater understanding.

Let there be quiet in my soul.
Let me hear more clearly what is there.
Let me embody more of the good that is a deep desire within me…
and be thankful all my days.

A wish for the day: an articulation of some of the desires that I would be. Hopes and ideals made words… and translated into the deeds of the day.

How great to have life and breath.
How great to know possibility…and to have the power to make things happen…and to witness them happening within you every day.

Wondrous be your day today, and your every today throughout this
delightful summertime that is ours.



Always,
Rev. David
