The Espiritu's

In these precious, sacred spaces, are such profound, wounded places, where finds providence, healing graces. facebook.com/story.php?stor…

“Yet in these thoughts… Haply I think on thee, and then my state, …sings hymns at heaven’s gate, For thy sweet love remembered such wealth brings, That then I scorn to change my state with kings.” —Shakespeare [The Sonnets (#29)] a.co/hgGsMKl a.co/2Cb1SmC

“‘But where shall I find courage?’ asked Frodo. ‘That is what I chiefly need.’ ‘Courage is found in unlikely places,’ said Gildor. ‘Be of good hope!” — The Lord Of The Rings: One Volume by J.R.R. Tolkien ⁦⁦#Tolkien #LOTR a.co/0IPQGOm a.co/ibIiPr8

GOD grant me the SERENITY to accept the things I cannot change, COURAGE to change the things I can, and WISDOM to know the difference. REINHOLD NIEBUHR Calligraphy | Art by Timothy R. Botts • The Navigators 2024 @thenavigators

The fact that you are: that you are you. This is all I have left. But it is the whole of love. And nothing can change it. June 1966, VI.307 - “Year with Thomas Merton: Daily Meditations from His Journals” by @ThomasMerton @MertonCenter @MertonDaily

“‘May the Lord bless you and protect you. May the Lord smile on you and be gracious to you. May the Lord show you his favor and give you his peace.’” —Numbers 6:24-26 (NLT) bible.com/bible/116/num.… @TheNavigators

“Days pass..years vanish..we walk sightless among miracles. Lord,fill our eyes w/seeing..our minds w/knowing..Your Presence,like lightning, illumines the darkness in which we walk.” May we “be ready,pay attention, lest days pass,years vanish,and we walk sightless among miracles.”

He is risen! • Easter Blessings in Celebration of the Resurrection of the Lord — Christ is risen indeed • Alleluia

“Easter? Our attention’s more on dying than on death..Socrates overcame dying;Christ overcame death. “The last enemy to be destroyed is death” (1 Cor. 15:26)..overcoming dying is within the realm of human possibilities;overcoming death means resurrection.” a.co/23TwlX5

“with the death of Jesus the disciples saw all hope dashed. Scattered from each other, they brooded in hopeless sorrow about what had happened. Only when we can take the death of Jesus just as seriously as they did, will we rightly understand” —Bonhoeffer a.co/al0tPIj

In the middle of the night Wakened by the wind It was the presence of the pain I could not escape It wrapped around my soul Like a ball and chain All of us have a heartache All of us have been stained All of us long for freedom There's only One who can break This ball and chain

the Word of God isn’t received by faith if it flits about in the top of the brain,but..takes root in the depth of the heart that it may be an invincible defense to withstand and drive off all the stratagems of temptation. Inst3.2.36 a.co/25O1Hgg a.co/1e67Ff8
