Day 15 - the first step to service may be in silence.


Corey Palmer - Chicago : The Ortha nan Gaidheal
The first step may be to clear my mind - of those things that distract, raw and judge. To be able to serve not to full fill what I want or need but to find and do what is needed by others.
 
I weave a silence onto my lips.
I weave a silence into my mind.
I weave a silence within my heart.
I close my ears to distractions.
I close my eyes to attractions.
I close my heart to temptations.

Calm me, O Lord, as you stilled the storm.
Still me, O Lord, keep me from harm.
Let all tumult within me cease.
Enfold me, Lord, in your peace.

--The Ortha nan Gaidheal
