Ruah Bull - Spiritual Director

 When something's going on   something else is going on. Notice the something else too.

 Mother of space, inner virgin with no one face-- See them flying to see you be near you when you  are everywhere

 to lean into that opening door, my dear companion, may I release you  back into precious earth with care, gratitude, respect You have been partner, teacher, trickster, angel on this journey into unimaginable Being Go in peace, love,  into the deep roots and underground waters. I bless you, praise you, thank you

 Sometimes the best map will not guide you You can't see what's around the bend Sometimes the road leads through dark places Sometimes the darkness is your friend

 Open unto me - light for my darkness Open unto me - courage for my fear Open unto me - hope for my despair Open unto me - peace for my turmoil Open unto me - joy for my sorrow Open unto me - wisdom for my confusion Open unto me - tenderness for my toughness Open unto me - love for my hates Open unto me - Holy Companion - open unto me 

 I used to pray that God would feed the hungry,  or do this, or that. But now I pray that God will guide me to do whatever I am supposed to do. I used to pray for answers, but now I pray  for strength. I used to believe that prayer changes things, but now I know that prayer changes us and we  change things,
