Thursday Pause

 

You are invited this morning to push pause.  To hold your life lightly for the preciousness, fragility, and faithfulness that is contained therein.  I invite you to take a deep breath.

Breathe in Easter-ing ways of God surprising Earth with Heaven in the most peculiar ways…breathe out the internal demand that we have to comprehend, even control, everything.

Breathe in God’s light shining from an empty tomb…breathe out an understanding that there is nothing new under the sun.

Breathe in the word, “Alleluia”….breathe out the words that someone said that caused hurt or harm, a wound that won’t heal.

Breathe in slowly and deeply…breathe out letting your exhale be even longer.

Breathe in trusting in God…breathe out all the voices that want to fix or save or solve your problems.

Breathe in….breathe out.

Be still in this moment and feel God’s love.  Amen.
