Practices for the Week Ahead

Spend a few minutes in silence each day listening for how your life speaks to you. Notice what is flourishing. Recognize and celebrate what people, institutions, plants, animals, or gifts are alive to themselves, serving others and God. Second, notice what is dying. Recognize what of these is in the throes of dying. Allow yourself to grieve their loss, but also remember that all things will be given new life in the risen Christ. Allow yourself to hope for the coming redemption of all things great and small. Give thanks in all things.
