Moments of Exile

(This is an additional reflection called forth by one's comments sent to me yesterday)


There will be places along the Lenten Path that will be like walking in exile.  Surrounded by questions that have no answer, you may be immersed in darkness.  Although the questions have a voice, you can choose to let them be there without allowing them to overwhelm you.

From Pamela's Sketchbook




The path of Christ is still there.

Consider the prayer in our ELW Evening Prayer worship.

Oh God, you have called your servants to ventures of which we cannot see the ending, by paths untrodden through perils unknown.  Give us faith to go out with good courage, not knowing where we go, but only that your hand is leading us and your love is supporting us, through Jesus Christ, Our Lord.  Amen,
