This call to love and co-create may take root in workplace, community, family, or nature. It may appear as art, dance, advocacy, housing, childcare, music, peacemaking, storytelling. The call may seem overwhelming. But as we find support from each other in our spiritual journeys, we can dare to say “Yes!” to impossible undertakings, to fully imagining and living our unique and precious lives. Seekers Church brochure ENTRANCE REFLECTION The Creator God has spread out for our delight a banquet that was twenty billion years in the making. A banquet of rivers and lakes, of rain and sunshine, of rich earth and of amazing flowers, of handsome trees and of dancing fishes, of contemplative animals and whistling winds, of dry and wet seasons, of cold and hot climates … and so are we, blessings ourselves, invited to the banquet. Matthew Fox, Original Blessing, pp.112-113 ENTRANCE REFLECTION It is unearned love – the love that goes before, that greets us on the way. It’s the help you receive when you have no bright ideas left, when you are empty and desperate and have discovered that your best thinking and most charming charm have failed you. Grace is the light or electricity or juice or breeze that takes you from that isolated place and puts you with others who are as startled and embarrassed and eventually grateful as you are to be there. Anne Lamott, Traveling Mercies: Some Thoughts on Faith, p. 139 ENTRANCE REFLECTION We are the vessels of God’s voice, her words blowing through us, bidding us to tell the tales that only we can speak. Jan L. Richardson, In Wisdom’s Path ENTRANCE REFLECTION The mystics consistently use words like mercy, forgiveness, faithfulness, and healing to describe what they experience as God. These all imply a God who does not just impose rules, but in fact changes them for us! … And every time God forgives, God is saying that relationship is more important than God’s own rules!
