The moment of prayer is an invitation to be calm in the midst of the tumult of the world and our over-busy lives, to bring together thought and feeling, mind and spirit, and to find some center -- some still point -- of perspective and peace. Here in this sanctuary which has been the home for so...Meditation | By Earl K Holt III | January 21, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: Connections, Generosity

Like pendulums we swing from hunger to hunger -- from hunger for the one great Truth (absolute, eternal, mystical) to hunger for simple, near-in, familiar truths that change as we change, grow as we grow....Meditation | By Don W Vaughn-Foerster | January 21, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: Balance, Searching

Let us take a moment to settle into the silence. Hear and feel your quiet breathing. Hear and feel the quiet of this room and this community of quiet people. As we sit in the quiet, feel the life that stretches between us, that fills this room....Meditation | By Emmy Lou Belcher | January 21, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: 7th Principle (Interconnected Web), Awe, Connections, Freedom, Presence, Silence, Unitarian Universalism

As today we have received these children into the congregation and committed ourselves to their nurture, let us now receive into our hearts all children. Let us remember the children we once were and who still live within us.

Let us rejoice for the families who have gathered this Thanksgiving to express their thanks and to celebrate the bounty of their lives.

Let us praise those fathers who have striven to balance the demands of work, marriage, and children with an honest awareness of both joy and sacrifice. Let us praise those fathers who, lacking a good model for a father, have worked to become a good father. Let us praise those fathers who by their...Meditation | By Kirk D Loadman-Copeland | January 21, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: Balance, Children, Family, Father's Day, Fathers, Gratitude, Healing, Love, Parents, Relationships, Sacrifice

Let there always be in the seasons of our lives a time for forgiveness -- for such is being human that we do unto others, as they do unto us, that which needs to be forgiven. There is a saying that "It's easier to forgive our enemies after we've gotten even with them." But is that in truth...Meditation | By Rolfe Gerhardt | January 21, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: Forgiveness

In this time of anticipated spring let us allow ourselves to extend the anticipation—to value the time of budding before blooming, of seeding before sprouting. This is a time of revelation: the revealing of that which is eternal, which we see every year, but still need to be reminded to see it in...Meditation | By Terasa Cooley | January 21, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: Birth, Earth, Hope, Imbolc / Brighid's Day / Candlemas, Listening, Nature, Unitarian Universalism, Vernal Equinox

In the moments when Word is silence give yourself to it in wholeness and wait. Let the knowing of this primal sound carry you into circles where sound itself— where silence itself—becomes new and the new a song you sing from your bones.Meditation | By Susan L Van Dreser | January 21, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: Body, Direct Experience, Immanence, Listening, Silence, Unitarian Universalism, Wholeness

Let us join in the exercise of silence for reflection, repose, meditation, or prayer. (Silence) In reflecting upon the dispiriting time in which we live, I have come to believe that the basic religious response is to refuse to be dispirited for long....Meditation | By Greta W Crosby | January 21, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: Abundance, Hope, Pain, Patience, Trust, Unitarian Universalism

If there is a heaven, it is right here, right now, in this particular arrangement of nature, this happening of earth, moon, and star, this constellation of instants, this laden moment, this flash of recognition, this particle of time. If there is a god, it is all around us, everywhere, in every...Meditation | By Tess Baumberger | January 21, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: Awe, Direct Experience, God, Mindfulness, Presence, Wholeness

I invite you now into a time of gratitude, reflection, renewal and hope. What an unearned blessing to delight in the calming peace of this space; to hear the robin's song again at daybreak; to feel the warmth in this room, and to enjoy the promise of summer almost upon us....Meditation | By Sam Trumbore | January 21, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: 3rd Principle (Acceptance & Spiritual Growth), 4th Principle (Truth & Meaning), Choice, Conflict, Contemplation, Direct Experience, Discernment, Hope, Strength, Vision

I do not know if the seasons remember their history or if the days and nights by which we count time remember their own passing. I do not know if the oak tree remembers its planting or if the pine remembers its slow climb toward sun and stars. I do not know if the squirrel remembers last fall's...Meditation | By Burton D.

How does one address a mystery? Cautiously—let us go cautiously, then, to the end of our certainty, to the boundary of all we know, to the rim of uncertainty, to the perimeter of the unknown which surrounds us. Reverently—let us go with a sense of awe, a feeling of approaching the powerful holy...Meditation | By Gordon B McKeeman | January 21, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: Awe, Connections, Contemplation, Mystery, Presence, Unity, Wonder

Here is where it all begins. It cannot be otherwise. Here we have come to listen, we have come to hear. An old woman sat here yesterday on a park bench, a brown bag at her side, her eyes sparkling as children frolicked on a carousel. "Nice day," I said. "You're right," she said, and smiled....Meditation | By Maureen Killoran | January 21, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: 1st Principle (Worth & Dignity), 3rd Principle (Acceptance & Spiritual Growth), 4th Principle (Truth & Meaning), Compassion, Connections, Direct Experience, Listening, Relationships, Unitarian Universalism
