Some centering thoughts
- There is a seed--spark--inner light of God within each of us, whatever our faith tradition or lack of one.
- “the human spirit is the candle of the Lord illuminating all our innermost parts” (Proverbs 20:27).
- “God is love.”
- “God is the center of everything and the circumference of nothing.” (From a Medieval theologian)
These thoughts give focus for: prayers of thanks--sighs and actions for people in need--finding God in nature--and appreciating beauty, They give context when praying for sick and grieving people, finding hope in seemingly hopeless conditions, praying for people in distress, and fill in the blanks__________.
Again, a favorite centering prayer: “Lord Jesus Christ you are the light of the world. Fill my mind with your peace and my heart with your love.”
