Noticing
an invitation to silence
Pay attention.
Notice the small, simple things.
The quiet corners, the dust glinting in the morning light, the hum of a nearby bee.
Each is a prayer, a moment for the light to pour in — the light of gratitude — throw open your doors and windows to it.
Rest here.

Jim Finley is fond of saying that God is present in the ordinariness of our lives… standing up and sitting down, for example. It is the paying attention that helps us to notice God’s abiding presence with us at all times in all things. Thank you for the reminder. ♥️
