Angels Blessings
Asking the Angels for a blessing before bedtime is a lovely way to end the day.
Angels bless and angels keep
Angels guard me while I sleep
Bless my heart and bless my home
Bless my spirit as I roam
Guide and guard me through the night
and wake me with the morning's light.
Amen.

29th Sunday in Ordinary Time, October 18, 2009
What can I do when I feel the worlds harsh breath and know
That if I stay too long in it’s path
My path shall be burned up also.
I must go back to the land again
And find the eagle at home with the rock.
I must climb to the mountaintop
And find the spot where the river begins.
I must lie quietly beside the earth
And find the warmth of its heart.
I must turn my vision to the sky
And find the purpose of clouds.
Then trouble seems far away
And the breath which consumes all beauty
Has passed right over me.
