GREETING

SONG

The house, the Temple of the Sacred Spirit, is within us. This song can be applied to enjoying both the internal Temple, the Sacred space within us each, and sacred places – churches, ashrams, synagogues, Nature … – outside us.

*Chris Tomlin. “Better is One Day.” Based on Psalm 84.10.

PRAYERFUL SILENCE

Today, I invite you to relax, breathe deeply, close your eyes, and enter into the Quiet of Silent Prayer, Meditation. Enjoy a while in this Silence. For those who like music as background during your Quiet, I give the video below. I recommend below a mantra, or prayer-word, or invocation; however, feel free to enjoy the Silence however you choose.
Breathing in: Come
Breathing out: holy Spirit

SONG

Spirit expresses the Beauty of Universal Love in the particular loves of our lives; the more intimate the Love, the more expressive of the Heart of G-D for us all. ♥

*Allison Crowe. “In My Life.”

PRAYERS

Prayer requests can be posted at Sanctum of Prayer, on Facebook, or sent to Brian at the listed email above. Time will be devoted to the request in loving faith.

Hold in prayer audibly or in silence intercessions for persons and needs, petitions for yourself, and thanksgiving and praise. End the time with Prayerful Silence.

SONG

The following song can be heard on different levels. On the surface, a song purely romantic. After a friend sent this to me this week, I heard it in other ways, for the first time. I heard the lyrics as the voice of Love, in another or others. I heard the song as the holy Spirit within us. Divine Love, in whatever form, always wants our best: desires to provide gracious Presence to help us see our sacred dreams come true. Indeed, we are often the Voice of G-D for another.

*Olivia Newton John. “Magic.”

SCRIPTURE

Be still, and know that I AM God
Psalm 46.10a

SPOKEN WORD

PRACTICING STILLNESS

Brian Kenneth Wilcox, Chaplain, MDIV, MFT, PHD

RESPONSE

I encourage you to use the meditation practice shared in the message today, at least to lead yourself into contemplative Quiet. See below for music to accompany the practice, if you wish to use it.

*Paul Collier. "Air."

Blessings to all who shared with us in the Worship experience, and blessings to everyone, and all Nature. Amen.

Thanks!

Brian Kenneth Wilcox
