A Prayer Seeking Rain©

Updated: Jan 31, 2023

Holy Creator of all, thoughts bounce around our brains

Questions

Perceptions

Grief seeking expression


Dearest Friend Jesus

Lead conversation

Flow Spirit of Life Wind

Guide

Discovery

Once cocooned as caterpillars

Help us become like butterflies

Seeking refreshment




Holy Midwife intercede

Sheer silence speaks

too deep for words

Open ears tuned to Father


So we listen like children feeling Mama's breath

Waiting for nourishment




Soak the parchment of our souls:

Uvalde

Ukraine

Russia

Putin

Palestine

Israel

Earth


Shootings project dysfunction into bullets

Spreading

Chilling

Fire crackers screaming

"Can't breathe!"

"Die!"


Tears of refugee children merge with Mama and Dada's tears screeching "Home?" "Where Home?"


War spreads like pollution effecting all marginalized persons the most because those entrusted with more tend to neglect taking enough time each day to ask

"What really matters?"

Even when we know what really matters

Do we act like what really matters

Really matters?


"Not us...

Not us, Lord?

Not us?

Lord, have mercy!"


Like dowsers seeking water sources

avoiding pangs of new birth travail

We feel

Disoriented

Dry

Defeated

Sleepwalking motions avoid unsettled souls who listen for sheer silence to

speak to the why's of suffering


Glued

Stuck

Wandering

Endless cycles watching media who usually neglect

Good News revealing encounters with

Holy

Holy

Holy

Making whole presence


Come saturating grace

Quench the parchment of all souls!!!



Come butterflies!

Honey bees!


Pollinate


Sheer stillness

Silence

Grant us the patience to endure storms stirring souls


Quieter of Storms

Lord Jesus

Gently pour soaking grace

Bathe tears of suffering with pools of agape...

Forming

Christ-like

Compassion

Empathy


Replacing

Fear

Judgment

With Courage to Be


Immersing all God made toes

Deep in water


A-Cross


Suspicious

Unexamined

Societal

Scripts

Causing us to hate and divide

Trying to Outshout holy silence

Birthing intimacy


For what we really crave are

Real friendships

with Holy Trinity

Who embodies

Lasting

Making whole love

Forming beloved community


Master of the Universe

Teach us to seek

Rain for the brain


Contemplative

Wisdom


Drop

Drop

Drop

The quenching of all souls.


Rest in the rainbow fulfilled promises of God's Never Ending Love!
