Here’s
a blessing for the start of Lent from Roddy Hamilton’s Listening to the Stones blog.
Into Lent
Blessing
May
the dust of the wilderness hold our footprints
lovingly
shaped
as they are by your hurt
for
dust remembers
May
the journey into wilderness unfold
honestly
for
honesty is the gift
your
soul recognises as you
May
your time in this wilderness
be
shaped by space
rather
than minutes
so
there is time enough for all of you
May
the stones in this wilderness
cry
out your name loudly
that
your spirit recognises the voice
that
has been calling you always
And
may you know this wilderness
has
been expecting you
and
you find between the stones
a
promise growing
