2. Sustenance

(My blog has moved to SleepOnTheHearth.com. Please visit!)

Psalm 63:2

I have seen you in the sanctuary and beheld your power and your glory.


Where? Where do you see God? Where are you when you get those fleeting glimpses of the real thing? Outdoors? Tucking a child into bed? Whispering a prayer of gratitude? Reading a great book? Petting a dog? Singing in church?

Find those symbols and observances and savor them. Call them what they are. We need all the refilling we can get.

Last weekend, probably very early in the morning on Holy Saturday, a doe gave birth to twin fawns outside our livingroom window. Here she is with one of them.

  1. What a wonderful and precious sign of new life in all its forms...and no doubt connected with fall sightings of the buck. I'm thankful to have been just in a very small way connected with this miracle... ~Catherine
