Teach Us To Pray

Living the Mystery

Season of neediness in prayer

Do you believe the deepest mystery of the gospel… That God’s grace elevates us to share in his own divine life?

As we live in the Easter season, let’s reflect on why God became man in Jesus Christ. To reconcile us with God; so that we might know God’s love; to be our model of; and to make users of the divine nature.

Christ atoned for all sin and by this action, we are raised up to become adopted children of God, to share in his very nature. Christ united himself to our humanity so that we might share in his divinity. 

Today I pray….

May your journey toward the cross and encounter with the empty grave slow you down and reawaken you to God’s mercy and redemptive power.

May you take time to behold glory at work in each co-worker, loved one and stranger; may you find your faith renewed in the beholding.

May you pause long enough to be awed by creation that you cannot help but lose yourself to a higher perspective.

May you allow eternal love to draw you into the divine inhale and exhale where your whole soul may flourish.

And may you find your place with all the saints proclaiming an unending “Alleluia” until all people on the earth know healing and wholeness through the hope of the Resurrection.

In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

Amen
