Dear Friends,
As we let Easter echo, We pray you are safe and well.
Today's Meditation presents The Family Folk Chorale and the Pihcintu Multicultural Chorus singing "Hope Lingers On" by Lissa Schneckenburger.
It was sent to us by Jane and Julien Olivier. they write: "Five of our family members are in this. The trumpet player on the top left is our son-in-law Josh. Our daughters Anique, Danielle and three of our grandchildren are in it. It's a wonderful meditation." We want to let it echo in our hearts and in our lives.
We invite you to join us as we commit ourselves to working tirelessly to end systemic and structural racism in our society, in healthcare, in the workplace, in the Church--wherever it shows up so that everyone may come to have more abundant life. May this meditation nourish our contemplative-active hearts and sustain all of us in action.
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.
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.
In this time of Easter, may you find peace, healing, hope, and the infusion of joy in your life!
With our love and care,
Ron & Jean
Meditation 327: Hope Lingers On https://youtu.be/QqgxILgtwqI
By Low Lily (Lissa Schneckenburger)
A beam of hope in these trying times! The miracle cure… choosing love over hate and fear.
Lyrics:
My mother, when love is gone
My mother, when love is gone, in our darkest hour, hope lingers on
My father, when peace is gone
My father, when peace is gone, in our darkest hour, hope lingers on
I will not hate and I will not fear, in our darkest hour, hope lingers here
My sister, when equality’s gone
My sister, when equality’s gone, in our darkest hour, hope lingers on
My brother, with tolerance gone
My brother, with tolerance gone, in our darkest hour, hope lingers on
I will not hate and I will not fear, in our darkest hour, hope lingers here
My love, when honor is gone
My love, when honor is gone, in our darkest hour, hope lingers on
My country, when justice is gone
My country, when justice is gone, in our darkest hour, hope lingers on
I will not and I will fear, in our darkest hour, hope lingers here
I will not and I will fear, in our darkest hour, hope lingers here
