To Walk with Saints and Scholars

Words of wisdom for the journey ahead from Help, Thanks, Wow: The Three Essential Prayers by Anne Lamott:

“Rumi said that all words are fingers pointing to the moon, and we think the words ARE the moon.  But because of the light, the light of love, the energy and motion that have called us to prayer, bits of this deeper reality are perceivable, and little bits of it will have to do. 

My three prayers are….

Help! Thanks! Wow!  That’s all I ever need, besides the silence, the pain, and the pause sufficient for me to stop, close my eyes, and turn inward.”

To Ponder: How can these three prayers – HELP! Thanks! Wow! – assist our journey as we seek our resurrection?
