In this episode, Martha gives a talk and offers a meditation as a part of our online event, Lighting Candles: A Vigil for Humanity.
A powerfully disarming reflection on the wisdom of grace and equanimity, and the possibility of prayer, for those of us not inclined toward Religion—holding the door open to the possibility that our lives are happening for us, not to us.
Night after night,
I came to you in prayer,
Begging that you might give unto me
A poem, or an insight, or a wise whisper.
Night after night,
You guided me,
And you gave me what I asked for,
Even though I knew
Mark therefore what my hopes are for you, – nay, rather, what I am promising myself, inasmuch as hope is merely the title of an uncertain blessing: I do not know any person with whom I should prefer you to associate rather than yourself.
Simon Drew and Brian Russell have a conversation “On Prayer and Presence.”
