I so appreciated sharings at the Wednesday afternoon group, yesterday was particularly poignant. Carolyn’s organization of the lectio gave me a most helpful focus. The line “liminal space that space between the boat and the reality of the storm” I am taking to a Visio Divina of the image. I see outstretched arms ( I think of Moses praying with outstretched arms during the battle <my tempest>), my body consenting with these gestures: I await, I allow, I accept, I await ( outstretched arms). I see this face ” paying attention to my inner experience in new ways”,  this globe of  light,( in the centre a quarter of the up in the image) is it this me made in the image and likeness of God or is it the light of the indwelling Spirit? Or is it a melding? Lately, my opening prayer to a ‘sit’ is  “I don’t know how to ask, so I just sit here and allow you this Indwelling Spirit to pray in me for what you most want to bestow”
