“You are here
with an overflowing love that knows no bounds
and welcomes all to a place at the table.”

“Whether it’s with words, tears, cries, or shouts give your prayers to God. God longs to carry you and give your comfort.”

“My hands – 
cling to the One 
who first reached out to me “

“Whoever we encounter
may we greet them in peace. 
In all that we do and say
may all our actions point to the One who brings hope and healing for the world.” 

“Pay attention. Notice. I’ll be searching this world, too, for signs of God’s grace and peace.”

“Take a moment and look. Close your eyes and listen. See the hope that surrounds you. And repeat as needed.”

“Remember this peace from God
that falls on you
and follows you
wherever you go
…”

“Please come and put your hands on {me} so that {I} will be healed and live.”

“Stay here, mama.” 
I flick the switch bringing darkness into the room. “I love you. I’m not going anywhere.” 

“Help me, Lord, to be open to your beauty, 
and to trust that there’s always more to come.”
