Slow Church 25th of Nov

Take a moment to encounter peace and rest

for 10 minutes silence all distractions

Immerse yourself in God’s creation

As you watch this video ask yourself

What do I notice?

How do I feel?

What is coming to my mind?

Bring your life before the creator

‘You rule over the surging sea; when its waves mount up, you still them.’ -Psalms 89:9

“Sea Watching” R S Thomas

Grey waters, vast
as an area of prayer
That one enters. Daily
over a period of years
I have let my eye rest on them.
Was I waiting for something?
Nothing
but that continuous waving
that is without meaning
occurred.
Ah, but a rare bird is
rare. It is when one is not looking
at times one is not there
that it comes.
You must wear your eyes out
as others their knees;
I became the hermit
of the rocks, habited with wind
and the mist. There were days,
so beautiful the emptiness
it might have filled,
its absence
was as its presence; not to be told
any more, so single my mind
after its long fast,
my watching from praying”
