For Sunday.....

Joan Walsh Anglund  has written these words in "The Circle of the Spirit."

                   "Only the open gate

                                            can receive

                                                          visitors.

                      Only the open hand

                                             can receive

                                                             gifts.

                      Only the open mind

                                             can receive

                                                           wisdom.

                     Only the open heart

                                           can receive

                                                         love."

The Mission Focus in the UMW Prayer Calendar for 2013 for today is the Wesley-Rankin Community Center, Dallas, Texas.

I wish you a blessed Sunday.

  8. Open hands, open hearts. I have a sweet small book related to your post, titled "With Open Hands" about bringing prayer into our lives, written by Henri Nouwen.
