Night Prayers

​Blessings All,
I invite you to settle into a place of silence.
Take a few deep breaths, then read aloud this prayer.
Perhaps repeat it twice.
Then take a moment of silence to reflect on the words or phrases that jump out to you.
Peace.  Rev. Gail

  Night Prayer of Those Making Night Prayers in the Time of Covid-19 
In such a time as this, 
we are waiting 
waiting for family to come visit again, 
waiting for a vaccine, 
waiting to put away our masks, 
waiting to hug again. 

In such a time as this, 
we are watching 
watching the case numbers, 
watching the deaths, 
watching worship online 
watching the space between us. 

“This is no time for a child to be born … 
Yet Love still takes the risk of birth.” 
(Madeleine L’Engle)

Incarnation is happening all around us. 
Infinite Mystery is unfolding within us, 
between us, above us, beneath us, around us. 
We wake to its reality and possibility 
Even Now, especially Now.
