Lent: Intentional and Prayerful



Intentional ~ thoughtful, purposeful.
Prayerful ~ awake to God here in this space.
Taken together, two parts of the same coin.

To be prayerful means that we need to move in meaningful ways.
To move in meaningful ways might find its fullest expression through prayer.
To be open here,
to trust that tomorrow is in God's hands.
To be open to here,
to trust we don't need to recreate yesterday...no matter how beautiful, amazing it was.
Today,
This moment.
This breath,
This beat of your heart.
This amazing, full of wonder moment.

Open to all it is...and is not.
Open to seeing its beauty...and its brokenness.
Open to the mystery...and the knowing.

What is around you?
What is missing?
What do you know?
What don't you know?
How might God be moving in that?

This might open us in prayerful and intentional and AMAZING ways.
