Sometimes the most important thing in a whole day is the rest we take between two deep breaths.

It is enough to be grateful for the next breath.
some days there may be much to say, others a simple thought -I welcome Lent this year as a time to reflect and remember…

Someone asked me, “Aren’t you worried about the state of the world?”
I allowed myself to breathe and then I said,
“What is most important is not to allow your anxiety about what happens in the world to fill your heart.
If your heart is filled with anxiety, you will get sick, and you will not be able to help.”
Yes, there is tremendous suffering all over the world, but knowing this need not paralyze us.
If we practice mindful breathing, mindful walking, mindful sitting, and working in mindfulness,
we can try our best to help.

Breathe deep and take in these quiet moments – the time just before the first bird sings.
The spirit is near but we are often unaware. Even as her offer to encourage and inspire stands ready, we manage to proudly claim this inspiration as something of our own creation.
May you begin this Sabbath with a still and focused breath.
