Reflection

“I love to think of nature as an unlimited broadcasting station through which God speaks to us every hour, if we will only tune in.” –George Washington Carver

Prayer

Creative Word,

What an inspiring thought… To imagine, that nature is broadcasting your voice among us, if only we would yield our attention and listen. Yet we are so distracted most of the time, and we struggle to embrace quiet moments, not knowing how to sit still or stop our buzzing about. Give us courage to try anyway, and simply to wait on your presence. Let us welcome quiet moments in which we might find you again, within the world you have made. Fill us with gratitude for your presence found in creation, that we might carry your presence to others around us. Amen.
