Bethany Berens posted this video/article on the Exit facebook page, but I just wanted to emphasize it to you guys. Contemplative prayer is really neat and I like Huertz' take on it as a center in living a life of social justice. Keeps our intentions pure and helps us to remember that we are human and cannot do the work of the Lord WITHOUT the Lord's strength. I know it seems so elementary, but I find myself trying to do things without His strength and failing pretty bad...

1 Peter 4:11
"If anyone speaks, they should do so as one who speaks the very words of God. If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen."
Thanks, I'll take a look.
