Feeling the air change
The shadows lengthen
The days shorten

What have you gathered?
What have you harvested?
What seeds, even now, are forming for next year’s garden?
What has fed you?
What have you poured too much energy into, trying to force or cajole or control?
What quiet abundance waited patient for you to notice?
💛🌿💛

“As we draw near to the turn
We get a chance to reflect back on what we’ve learned
What have we learned?”

The sanctuary was beautifully decorated today
Billions of crystals floating in the air and all around and pilled in heaping abundance underfoot
Water is Life

Wishing us all a very blessed First Day
Wishing us all quiet moments to cultivate gratitude and to prioritize our attention

There are so many things to give thanks for

Sermons from the porch swing

He said
“I always worked
I always figured that’s what made me worth something
I can’t work
I can’t…. anything
I can barely move my head from side to side here I am
in the fast, deep, water
Pressed against the boulder of acceptance

If there is a rope for me in these waters
It is god talk
When I start to talk about god
man,
A feeling comes right over me.
Like I’m flyin
I just got to hold to that rope
But it’s even better than that
It isn’t even a rope
I find
Right now talking to you
That it is a net
And it is holding me so gentle

And man
That just changes the whole thing”

Rain on the pond
Frost on the breeze
Long dark nights

Approaching the shortest night of the year.
Taking stock of what has been planted and the rhythm that the year is establishing.
It feels good to have bare feet on the ground.
To hold court with the fireflies.
To share voices around a bonfire.
To watch the swift sunrise over the tree line.
To be grateful for all the amazing people and plants that have blessed this place.
