Thanks Debbie for your service and share. My daily routine of prayer is in the morning, but I find many things throughout the day remind me of my HP. This happens especially out in nature, when I'm struggling with something and an idea pops into my head, and sometimes there is a close call like dropping something heavy on the floor that doesn't land on my toes, I'm grateful! I feel some force of spiritual energy looking out for me. That's my HP :)
Great page, thanks Deb and Lyne for your ESH, and beautiful lilies!
Most of my searching prayers are in the form of meditation, a practice I found and developed after finding Alanon. This is the time where I quiet the voice of my plotting mind to open my heart to my higher power.
I can do this at any time of need, but my routine is to engage this practice at first of day, in the quiet and dark hour of the morning. That time holds a peace that offers an elevated lauchpad for a higher power connection.
When I hold to this, the theme of my day is internally set and more easily recalled in times of strain. It is when I allow other, seemingly important tasks to pull me away that a decline in my spiritual connection and quality of social interchange becomes noticeable.
Grateful for the timely reminders
