Dear Friends,

We pray you are safe and well. In the spirit of our philosophy of co-creating community and our awareness that the Spirit speaks through each of us, we invite you to share your meditations with us as well. We truly believe that in God’s economy of abundance, when we share our blessings, our thoughts, our feelings, we are all made richer. 

Today’s meditation was written by Sarah Rule, who is a Roman Catholic Womanpriest Candidate for Ordination in South Africa.  We found her poetic reflection inspiring and comforting, and we anticipate that it will bring you these same blessings. 

We hope and pray that you and your loved ones experience genuine peace of mind and heart, and remain in good health during this challenging time. 

May Easter Day be the beginning of a season of peace, of healing and hope, of the resurrection of joy in your life!

With our love and care,

Jean & Ron

Meditation Fifteen: Tomb Time:  by Sarah Rule of Stellenbosch, South Africa

There is a time

between suffering

and rising

a pause

it may be

a day

or 

a night

or 

an hour

a time

to be still

tended

wrapped

perfumed

a time

for others to care

to hold

to embalm

the pause

the space between

be still

and know

that God is there

before the rising

behind the stone

in the dark

and you

as you open

to Love

your spirit will quicken again
