Now,
O Lord,
calm me into a quietness
that heals
and listens,
and molds my longings
and passions,
my wounds
and wonderings
into a more holy
and human
shape.
from Guerillas of Grace, Prayers for the Battle, by Ted Loder
Rudolf Otto wrote of the "mysterium tremendum," the wonderful and awe filled experience that is God. Mixed in with the wonderful stuff of life, though, is some just plain awful that God would have us change. Welcome to my blog. I am a pastor, photographer, writer, sojourner, mentor, wife, as well as a mother to Parker, a golden retriever, and Maggie, a black lab.
Now,
O Lord,
calm me into a quietness
that heals
and listens,
and molds my longings
and passions,
my wounds
and wonderings
into a more holy
and human
shape.
