"Eager to Worship"

A Prayer a Day
03/27/16
The crowd gathering this morning
eager to worship at St Francis Xavier,
were so densely packed in, that it made it
impossible to move past the entrance of
the church doors.
I was amazed at how many people were there.
I have never experienced anything quite like that before.
People are hungry for spirit, no doubt.
May the light of spirit shine through each
and everyone of us.
Sacred music played as the choir sang
and the ceiling art was breathtakingly beautiful.
Singing along with a choral song,
waiting for the chance to go further into the church, I could not penetrate the masses and
so I left a bit disappointed, but genuinely peaceful.
I had gone there to meet with some
dear friend, but I could not find them.
Walking back home, I saw people waiting on food lines, lots of them in various emotional states,
some conversing and enthusiastically happy,
some looking down trodden and sad.
I felt it...bless them...bless them deeply.
I saw children dressed for
Easter in sweet pastels and bow ties.
There was a of hum of anticipation
floating through the atmosphere.
I heard one woman asking anxiously
if she would be able to receive communion.
Birds were fluttering and
flying in the sunlight, delighted.
The morning was inviting and cool.
Walking back home I was feeling
wholly satisfied for all the gathered
devotional hearts I had just been
a part of and touched by.
To the spirit of humankind.
May we reach for the sun and the moon and the stars in the name of brotherhood and sisterhood.
Amen!
