Consider the Lilies: Not Because I Doubted
http://consider-lilies.blogspot.com/2015/04/not-because-i-doubted.html
Thoughts from a Life of Musing, Praying, Writing, and Teaching. Sunday, April 26, 2015. Not Because I Doubted. Not Because I Doubted. Though hidden beneath layers. Worn thin and well tucked;. Hidden in the open spaces, bared. To the winds of history, the contortions of mystery;. The invitation was everywhere in you-. Voice, whisker, shuffle, silence,. The defiant parry of blue from your eye:. Put your finger here, reach out your hand,. Lay your knowing, lay your compassion,. Not because I doubted, rather.

Consider the Lilies: I Come by it Honestly
http://consider-lilies.blogspot.com/2015/03/i-come-by-it-honestly.html
Thoughts from a Life of Musing, Praying, Writing, and Teaching. Sunday, March 15, 2015. I Come by it Honestly. Attention without feeling.is only a report." - Mary Oliver-. Over the course of my life I have had the chance to read several volumes of my great-grandmother's journals.I read the first one before I was ten when I found it in a box at my grandmother's house and asked if I could read it. I can remember thinking- "Really? Why did she write? Leaving a record of deeds and acts? Though I long to know...

Consider the Lilies: October 2014
http://consider-lilies.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Thoughts from a Life of Musing, Praying, Writing, and Teaching. Thursday, October 23, 2014. 23 October, 2014. The rare experiences at the tail end of the earth that are here- you can't help getting them. I thank them for the fluidity of their pens and the intimacy they are able to convey in the coming together of ink and paper. Intimacy of thought and feeling, intimacy of relationship to the world, to others, to God, to Nature and Art. I thank them for their lives, fully lived, fully engaged, fully given...

Consider the Lilies: June 2014
http://consider-lilies.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
Thoughts from a Life of Musing, Praying, Writing, and Teaching. Sunday, June 29, 2014. A Fullness of Light. I was brought to quiet tears today by an image of such beauty, such love.the image of a dear friend sitting in the light of God, letting it flow all around her, through her. I was so deeply happy for her and so moved by the tenderness of God. This prayer filled me as I blessed her for the adventures awaiting her in the months ahead. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not overcom...

Consider the Lilies: November 2014
http://consider-lilies.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Thoughts from a Life of Musing, Praying, Writing, and Teaching. Saturday, November 29, 2014. Advent I, 2014. Advent I, 2014. With bare spread arms and fullness of being. I ache for your coming and praise you already. In the becoming colors where night awakens the sun. With stories and visions and hope. Where day bows to starlight and promises tales. When next they meet to dance. On the edge of Mystery's vastness. Kimberly M. King, rscj-. Monday, November 24, 2014. I understand your desire to bend. Sunday...

Consider the Lilies: August 2014
http://consider-lilies.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Thoughts from a Life of Musing, Praying, Writing, and Teaching. Thursday, August 28, 2014. Two weeks and an Era. 14 August, 2014. The laughter that has filled this place, the multitude of languages, the prayer, the mourning, the keening, the death, the blessing, the difficulties, challenges, conversations, verbal sparring, and the Love. It has experienced a life of great meaning, this place, and now its body is tired and sore. 28 August, 2014. In thee, Oh God. Not in a particular address or a city or...

Consider the Lilies: December 2014
http://consider-lilies.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Thoughts from a Life of Musing, Praying, Writing, and Teaching. Tuesday, December 16, 2014. The desk in my bedroom has a squared-u on top of the back part of it. There is a wide flat top to the u that up until several days ago held most of my books. There was a pile at one end.a line of books.and a pile at the other. Since putting volumes up there, I rather enjoyed the idea that I had end books instead of book ends. God is the space between and in the sensing itself and in the whole come together. Image:...

Consider the Lilies: July 2014
http://consider-lilies.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Thoughts from a Life of Musing, Praying, Writing, and Teaching. Saturday, July 5, 2014. I wrote this in my notebook yesterday afternoon. On the one hand, it made me twinge inside to realize that I had forgotten the feeling I described, and yet on a wholly other plane, I was so humbly grateful for the gentle gift being given to me. Whether it was new, or a reminder of something forgotten, doesn't really matter. Four hours of being cared for by story. Being cared for by Story! I think it might take all sor...

Consider the Lilies: Hand in hand
http://consider-lilies.blogspot.com/2015/05/hand-in-hand.html
Thoughts from a Life of Musing, Praying, Writing, and Teaching. Monday, May 18, 2015. An entry from this morning. 6:37 AM. Est l'heure de prendre un café avec une chatte qui mange son petit-déjeuner. I woke to my room being filled with the most wonderful light.first light, warm, embracing light. Hope for that was part of my motivation for leaving my blind slats open when going to bed last night, I confess. It's a both-and, a hand in hand. I love that about you.
