Praying our experiences is a way into the depth of self-knowledge
and acceptance. As we unfold our experiences and become aware of
our blessedness and our brokenness, we begin to become more aware
of the God who alone can fill all our life with graciousness.
~ from PRAYING OUR EXPERIENCES by Joseph F. Schmidt
Many of us need the wilderness as a place to listen to the quiet, to feel at home with ancient rhythms that are absent in city life, to know the pulse of a river, the riffle of the wind, the rataplan of rain on the slickrock.
