Yesterday I was describing a certain intimacy that I had discovered on the Camino in 2014. It was this intimacy with God that just was. I didn’t have to “conjure” up God in elaborate communications. It was all very simple.
Yesterday I had a two hour FaceTime chat with Cris. I had a pile of things to cover with her and finally we connected so that was where the two hours went. And in addition she sent in a comment about #10. You can read that in the Comments. And one of the things that she included there was this blog post that really sums things up:
Walking becomes praying, pilgrimpace blog
I would have a hard time putting it any better than what is there. Please check that out. So I think that I will say goodbye to February 2021 and tuck in the Pilgrim Beatitudes till we review them again. They are really such a joy, it was beautiful to unpack them and see once again what a treasure we have. Till next time.
So Catherine will be here in a moment to hold our homemade church service. It has been dry for a few days so hopefully the standing water has subsided. We had wet feet on Thursday.
wet footed loves, Felipé.
And it is unbelievable synchronization, as Andy wrote that post on 28Feb2011!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How is that????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cris ~ as Annie says, “We can’t help ourselves!” The best explanation. Felipé.x
Phil and friends,
I have loved this time on the Pilgrim Blessings. They have been so meaningful!
Probably each of us discovered prayer on the Camino in our own way. I found that I could use my walking pole to tap out prayers. It was perfect for lines of the Jesus Prayer, or I could tap out a person’s name that I wanted to pray for, or the Lord’s Prayer, etc. A rhythm to prayer. .
Blessings to all as we head into March. Susan
Susan ~ thanks for being here and adding to the whole. The Beatitudes are a blessing for sure. Felipé.x
