Phasing In and Out, Psalm 21

"People do not become useless simply because they do not have the strength or stamina of middle age. Life is a series of phases, each of them important, all of them worthwhile. Nothing must ever deter that, not even religious rigor or pious fervor." 
Sister Joan Chittister    

 

God is where we are.  Blessed be.    

 

"In your strength I rejoice, 

O My Beloved, 

and in your Presence my heart finds rest.

You root out my fears;  

standing firm beside me as 

I face the shadows within. 

For You put fears to flight, 

that love and justice might reign.  

All praise be yours, O Wondrous One!

Forever I will sing and honor your saving grace.
