God Is God

Wednesday’s Reflection

YOU ARE GOD-not me, not us;
help me to remember this simple fact each day.
You are the Center of creation—not me, not us;
help me to recognize my place within the orbit of your grace.
You are the Source of all life-not me, not us;
let me find in you my kinship with all creation.

Tips for Your Spirit:
Praying with Eyes Open. Many of us were taught to close our eyes when we pray. Praying with icons is an ancient prayer practice that involves keeping our eyes wide open, taking into our heart what the image visually communicates. Try praying with icons.
