Mother Theresa

The fruit of silence
is prayer.
The fruit of prayer
is faith.
The fruit of faith
is love.
The fruit of love
is service.
The fruit of service
is peace.

Prayer for Torn Families

There was an article recently sharing how a father was not allowed to intervene in preventing his children from receiving the Covid vaccines. I can only imagine how horrifying this must feel to not be able to protect your children. Yet it is also true that I imagine his wife from the other side, was also equally stressed as I am sure she believed vaccines were going to save her children.

I don’t happen to be of that mind set but I can also see how it is tearing an already stressed family apart even further. How do you come back from those places? Is there forgiveness? Can we heal past this?

An Alberta judge has ruled in favour of a woman who was fighting with her ex-husband over whether their children would be vaccinated against COVID-19.

According to court documents obtained by CTV News, the parents from Lethbridge were at odds over acquiring COVID-19 vaccinations for their two children, aged 10 and 12.

How this Prayer Works

As part of our process, it is to reach deep within, to those emotion that are evoked by situations. Those emotions are where we link to each other, where we are a part of one human family. Emotions brought on by deep pain, loss & despair are hard to be with. But as we embrace them we also help hold the burden for another, that they are not alone.

These emotions are like the votive candle. They are held up and offered into the love we have for each other and like the wick which holds the flame, so too are these painful times given into a place of greater light.

Prayers written from a deep place of heart

When there is suffering, we encounter a silence within. When we engage this silence we understand many things. Compassion arises and then we can begin to speak from the well springs of love within. And so we can heal each other. We can heal the world.
