Weekly Inspiration (7/6/22)
It is an extraordinary thought that God’s Spirit has come mightily upon us – and not just once, at our baptisms. We each have that Spirit now – a great power which we can call upon every day. Call out that power: Come, Holy Spirit! And that Spirit, like the sun and the rain, will help the seeds which God has planted deep within us to grow and flourish.
-Br. Geoffrey Tristram
Poem of the Week
The sparrow hops among the bits,
cocks its head to the spots among the rocks,
little seeds, or less, hiding in the grit,
shaded under the patio table,
specks on the windbrushed street.
It rests, satisfied, on the wristy branch,
hops down again, finds food,
and,thankful, throaty, thrives.
God grant me sparrow eyes.
