Holy spirit, We feel you moving among us here. Bless us with your presence. For we are in need… …in need of strength and courage. Our road is filled with rocks, with boulders strewn, boulders so high we sometimes wonder whether we can climb them, We are in need… …in need of comfort and...Meditation | By Judith L Quarles | January 21, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: Challenge, Connections, Peace, Presence, Strength, Unitarian Universalism

Spirit of life and love, In this season of beginning Some of us are hurried and harried. Some of us feel sorrowful and afraid. Some of us are not yet ready to step forward into the future.

Infinite Spirit of Life, we ask thy blessing on these, thy messengers of fellowship and love. May they remind us, amid diversities of knowledge and of gifts, to be one in desire and affection, and devotion to thy holy will. May they also remind us of the value of comradeship, of doing and sharing...Meditation | By Norbert Fabian Capek | January 21, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: Flower Communion

When Jesus was baptized the spirit descended upon him like a dove and God said, “This is my son, in whom I am well pleased.” It must have been a great feeling, but it didn’t last long. The next thing Jesus knew, the nice spirit that had descended like a dove became aggressive and drove him...Meditation | By Sarah York | January 21, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: 4th Principle (Truth & Meaning), Challenge, Change, Christianity, Despair, Solitude, Transformation, Unitarian Universalism, Unitarianism

In the midst of a world marked by tragedy and beauty there must be those who bear witness against unnecessary destruction and who, with faith, rise and lead in freedom, with grace and power.

Each day I am newly reminded of my unworthiness—a dozen thoughts misspoken; another day when the good I do falls short of the good that I could do; myriad small interchanges; moments of sharing that strain to the breaking point my desire to be generous, helpful, and kind; months of careful work...Meditation | By Elizabeth Tarbox | January 21, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: 1st Principle (Worth & Dignity), 4th Principle (Truth & Meaning), Body, Brokenness, Earth, Earth-Centered, Healing, Nature, Unitarian Universalism, Wholeness, Worth

I spent some time this weekend with an old friend, a dentist. She's considering buying her own practice, but wonders if she could retain the current patients and attract new ones. She wonders if the office staff would like her, or befriend her too much, or resent her, or desert her; she wonders...Meditation | By Jane Rzepka | January 21, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: Acceptance, Courage, Faith, Fear, Living Our Faith, Secular, Wholeness

On sabbatical in East Africa, I heard a story of a people who believe that we are each created with our own song. Their tradition as a community is to honor that song by singing it as welcome when a child is born, as comfort when the child is ill, in celebration when the child marries, and in...Meditation | By David S Blanchard | January 21, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: 1st Principle (Worth & Dignity), Beauty, Character, Children, Direct Experience, Individualism, Mystery, Prophetic Words & Deeds

Two women, thin, one small, one gray-haired, sit side by side on a high-backed bench. The smaller one leans against the other, lays her head atop the other’s shoulder, wraps her arm around the other. The one wrapped around, leaned against and onto, sits upright. The smaller one sits up also, but...Meditation | By Nancy Shaffer | January 21, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: Children's / Religious Education Sunday

A few summers ago my wife Suzanne and I took our son Christopher gem mining in the mountains of North Carolina. We mounded a pile of mud and dirt, got a sifter, and began sifting through the soil in search of treasure. Liberal religious education is like gem mining. In a Unitarian Universalist...Meditation | By Christopher Buice | January 21, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: Children, Children's Sabbath, Education, Teacher Dedication

Adapted from Flower Sunday, 1969 On a day such as this may a great change come upon us. The sounds we have been hearing have been discordant; the sights we have been seeing have been violent; the words we have been reading have been hateful. All this has been wearying, discouraging and distracting.Meditation | By William B Rice | January 21, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: Flower Communion

This is the kind of God I could worship: a heavenly Mother who prefers imitation to adoration, and who sees in all Creation the indivisible smiles of Her children.

Our Mother, Holy...Meditation | By Jeffrey B Symynkywicz | January 21, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: Mother's Day

In the hours before the birds stream airborne with chiming voice, a silent breath rests in the pines, and upholds the surface of the lake as if it were a fragile bubble in the very hand of God.

Early spring awakens memories of a deeper cold and hopes of a warmer wetness, sprouting seeds and budding branches. Gray trees on gray sky screen eyes from all that lies waiting: the color of a million flowers, the feathers of migrating songbirds, the blossoming smiles of friends.

When my mind is still and alone with the beating of my heart, I remember many things too easily forgotten: the purity of early love; the maturity of unselfish love that seeks nothing but another's good; the idealism that has persisted through all the tempest of life.Meditation | By Paul H Beattie | January 21, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: Peace, Solitude, Spiritual Practice
