T he S eason after P entecost

yet all that we can conceive springs from you. All things proclaim you, those endowed with reason and those bereft of it. All the expectation and pain of the world coalesces in you. All things utter a prayer to you, a silent hymn composed by you. You sustain everything that exists, and all things move together to your orders. You are the goal of all that exists. You are one and you are all, yet you are none of the things that exist - neither a part nor the whole. You can avail yourself of any name; how shall I call you, the only unnameable? All-transcendent God! Affirmation for the Day Sunday: You are the Lord Most High, the one who lives forever. Monday: Your dominion is an everlasting dominion. Tuesday: All the inhabitants of the earth are accounted as nothing next to your power. Wednesday: You do what you will in heaven and on earth. Thursday: No one can stay your hand or challenge you. Friday: You are able to humble all who walk in pride. Saturday: Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was and is, and is to come. ~ Gregory of Nazianzen, 329-389
