Pause+Pray

One of the most challenging things about grief is trusting God with the person we have lost, especially when it feels like God is silent in our suffering.

Celtic spiritual guides identified certain geographical places as “thin places,” where heaven and earth meet and we can experience the nearness of God.

Throughout our lives, our faith is going to experience ebbs and flows. Over time it will grow, change, and even, at times, be challenged.

Sometimes we feel at a loss for how many things in our lives age and break, run out, wear down, need replacing.

Sacred silence—there’s no irony or coincidence that the words “silent” and “listen” are spelled with the same letters.

God’s love for us cannot be separated from God’s love for creation. Let us honor the Divine breath that connects all living things through our actions as well as our words as we pray.
