Scripture: Psalm 131
Journal: What does the image of a weaned child with its mother do within
you today? How do you long to be just
that? What keeps you from it?
Reflection:
Just as the weaned child on its mother’s
breast seeks no physical nourishment but enjoys the riches of unspoken love
given and received, so the soul in quiet adoration lays its head against the
heart of Love and absorbs all that Love yearns to bestow. His Love draws out what is truest and best in
all it touches, shapes all things toward the wholeness proper to them, is
quietly victorious amid the strident self-importance of the world. ~John S.

Prayer
Closing
Prayer: O God, lover of my soul, give me the freedom
and the courage and the peace to simply lay my head on your great heart of love
and rest my soul in your caring embrace.
Amen.
