Prayers today


Very cold out this morning and
there's ice about it patches. Just
so cold! Praying for a dear friend's
premature baby born on Tuesday
that he will make it. I have those
angels camped around him from
Pslam 34:7

The angel of the LORD encamps
around those who fear him, and
delivers them.

AND a line from a poem we worked
on knowing last week by Gerald Manley
Hopkins, a poet-priest in the Victorian
Age:

From God's Grandeur:


Because the Holy Ghost over the bent
World broods with warm breast and
with ah! bright wings.


BROODS:

  1. To sit on or hatch (eggs).
  2. To protect (young) by or as if by
  3. covering with the wings.
