flow

Opening Prayer: Lord Jesus, flow like a river—like many rivers—in and through my life this day, just like you said you would.  That I might be who you made me to be, and thus do what you made me to do.  In your name and for your glory.  Amen.

Scripture: John 7:37-39

Journal: What is your sense of God’s flow within (and through) your life on a daily basis?  What enables it?  What stifles it?  Do you truly believe that this is the kind of life God desires for you?

Reflection:

I believe in all that has never yet been spoken.
I want to free what waits within me
so that what no one has dared to wish for

may for once spring clear
without my contriving.

If this is arrogant, God, forgive me,
but this is what I need to say.
May what I do flow from me like a river,
no forcing and no holding back,
the way it is with children.

Then in these swelling and ebbing currents,
these deepening tides moving out, returning,
I will sing you as no one ever has,

streaming through widening channels
into the open sea.

                        ~Rainer Maria Rilke

Prayer

Closing Prayer: Lord Jesus, help me to love like you.  Rid my heart and soul of all that is not love.  Amen.
