Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.

for longing


Blessed by the longing that brought you here
And quickens your soul with wonder.

May you have the courage to listen to the voice of desire
That disturbs you when you have settled for something safe.

May you have the wisdom to generously into your own unease
To discover the new direction your longing wants you to take.

May the forms of your belonging - in love, creativity, and friendship - 
Be equal to the grandeur and the call of your soul.

May your dreams gradually reveal the destination of your desire.

May your mind inhabit your life with the sureness 
with which your body inhabits the world.

Amen
