Reflections

Seeking the Golden Thread-Seeding the Future Every five years, the Dominican Sisters of San Rafael engage in formal sessions of prayer, discussion and discernment to determine the congregational direction and focus for the upcoming five years and to elect new leadership.

I started humming a familiar litany of the Holy Spirit as I was preparing the prayers for a meeting for the sisters.

There is nothing you can see that is not a flower; there is nothing you can think that is not the moon.

The most fortunate are those who have a wonderful capacity to appreciate again and again, freshly and naively, the basic goods of life, with awe, pleasure, wonder and even ecstasy.

Who is God?

Never be so focused on what you’re looking for that you overlook the thing you actually find.
