Oramus
Let us Pray!
The open gesture
and injunction to lift our
hearts and minds to God…
Stilling the whirl of
pulsing distractions amid
the ordinary…
Giving over to
silence that invites the touch
of intimacy…
Being present in
mind and body before the
radiance of God…
Nuzzled and cuddled
by the warmth of the embrace
we nestle closer
and open our hurt,
our longing and needs to the
Sweet God of our Heart.
We lift them up to the Lord!
