St. Francis: Then and Now

by Melissa Taft
written by Melissa Taft

by Elaine Breckenridge

Yesterday was the feast day of St. Francis of Assisi. During the weekend, across denominational lines and throughout the world, his life and legacy were celebrated. Annual pet and animal blessings were held. St. Francis is so compelling that you can walk into a Lowe’s or a Walmart store, or any number of plant nurseries, and buy a statue of his likeness. Where do we see him most? In gardens and adorning birdbaths. There are numerous accounts of him preaching to birds. 

Francis straddled the 12th and 13th centuries, dying in 1226.  Born into a wealthy family, he was a wild youth fond of partying. He served in the military for a short time. While on the road it is said that he met a leper whose appearance had a profound effect on him. During that time, he fell sick, had dreams and visions, and experienced a conversion to Christ. Following a break with his father who disowned him, Francis renounced his father’s wealth. Taking off his clothes, he handed them to his father declaring his marriage to “Lady Poverty.” 

What is often overlooked or forgotten about Francis is his total identification with poverty. For years he was homeless by choice, caring for street people who had not made that choice. He ministered to the sick, especially lepers. Perhaps we need to be planting statues of Francis in places where the urban poor are. Statues of Francis placed near soup kitchens and homeless shelters would remind us of his identification not just with animals but with “the least of these.”   

Francis, like Jesus, cared about reforming and mending a broken world. One biographer says of St. Francis, “His life and his relationship with the world – including animals, the elements, the poor and sick, as well as princes and prelates, women as well as men, represented the breakthrough of a new model of human and cosmic community.” (Richard Rohr)

A new model of human community and cosmic community. Such a vision might be called God’s shalom. Theologian Walter Bruggeman says that shalom is the central vision of the Bible in which “all of creation is one, every creature in community with every other, living in harmony and security toward the joy and well-being of every other creature.” To care about the well-being of every other creature was at the heart of the vision of St. Francis of Assisi. 

Murray Bodo wrote a spiritual and imaginative biography of Francis and said this, “God was everywhere and God’s presence charged creation with a power and glory that made everything shine with beauty and goodness in Francis’ eyes.” (The Journey and the Dream.) 

For Francis, the Earth was alive. And the earth is alive. It is a community of life dependent on other life forms for existence. All living organisms on the planet breathe, inhale and exhale the same air. We share the other elements of water, earth, and fire. The Earth does not belong to us, we belong to it. 

I think if Francis was among us today, his central message would be one of repentance.  He would remind us to think and walk in a new direction, letting go of the idea that humanity is higher, greater, and more valued than or separate from the rest of creation. He would remind us that not only is creation good; it is sacred because it is a manifestation of God.  He would invite us to better care for God’s beautiful creation, this Earth, our fragile island home.  

Earthrise

Earthrise

“Earthrise,” the first known picture of the Earth from the vantage point of the moon, was taken by astronaut William Anders on the Apollo 8 mission in 1968. We now have the ability with our own eyes to see a world without borders, a radiant but vulnerable gem floating in space. Yet, without the ability to view the Earth from this perspective, Francis had a cosmic awareness of the inter-dependence, the “Oneness” of all living things.   

Although the feast day to celebrate the life of Francis has come and gone; his vision remains. There is always time to honor his legacy by a mindful practice of seeing life through his eyes. Consider contemplating the sacredness and wonders of our cosmos, the galaxies, stars, and the planets. Spend time with each of the elements, plants and animals. Give thanks for the ways they nurture and care for us. Practice listening to the Earth, and seeing God in creation and in all of humanity. I close with this prayer as I can imagine Francis reciting it.    

“Earth-maker God, as the hand is made for holding and the eye for seeing, you have fashioned us for joy. Grant us your vision that we may find it everywhere— in the sunlit faces of our world, in the wild flower’s beauty, in the lark’s melody, in a child’s smile, in a mother’s love, in the face of a steadfast man.  Our society is ever restless always craving one more thing to do, seeking happiness through more and more possessions. Teach us to be at peace with what we have, to embrace what we have been given and received, to know that enough is enough until our striving ceases and we rest content in you alone.” 

—A Holy Island Prayer Book by Ray Simpson

Amen.

Meditation Monday

Meditation Monday – Thank God for the Gift of Breath

by Christine Sine
written by Christine Sine

by Christine Sine

Another week enamoured of my new morning mantra:

Thank God for the gift of life, this wondrous gift so freely given.

This week my focus was on the gift of breath, so intimately interwoven with the gift of life. This is a recurrent theme for me, but I have never felt so deeply moved by my meditations. Breath is the first gift God ever gives us, and the last. It is the gift that is given every moment of every day over and over and over again. It is a gift given to every living organism. In some way, every single part of creation inhales and exhales. Yet we so easily take this incredible gift for granted. Though perhaps one of the lessons we learned from COVID is not to take our breath for granted.

So today I sit looking at the prayer above, which I also have printed on a canvas board, and thinking about my breath and the wonder of a God who reached down into the soil, molded it into the shape we call human, breathed on it and formed that first human being. (Genesis 2:7 The Voice) Then I fast forward to the New Testament and imagine myself as one of Jesus’ disciples. I close my eyes and sense his warm breath as he moves close and breathes his spirit into me and says: “Welcome the Holy Spirit of the living God.” (John 20:21-22 The Voice)

Now I cup my hands and take a deep breath in through my nose and out into my hands. The warmth of it feels good against the chill of the morning air. I walk outside and repeat the process, imagining my breath moving out into the atmosphere laden with carbon dioxide that the trees in our back yard eagerly grab hold of, replenishing the air I exhaled with oxygen then sending it back to me or on to someone else.  Wow, this act of breathing is far more wondrous and far more complex than I imagined. My breath is connected not just to the great Creator of the universe, it is connected to every other creature on our planet. God’s breath instills life into all creation. This wondrous gift of life and breath is truly incredible and I pray you will pause to think about it today.

I thank you God for the gift of breath,
First gift and last of my life,
A gift that fills me every moment of every day –
over and over and over again.
I thank you God for the wonder
of waking each day with breath in my lungs,
and your love in my heart.
I thank you for the breath you breathe,
On me, in me, through me.
Thank you for the gift you keep on giving
your life filling me each moment with love and mercy and joy.

(c) Christine Sine 2021

So much to give thanks to God for in every single breath of every day.

If you have time watch the video below and rejoice in the wonder of breath and of the God who continually gives us this wondrous gift.

2021 World Wide Communion Sunday

by Christine Sine
written by Christine Sine

Writings and photos by June Friesen,

What comes to your mind as you hear the words ‘World Wide Communion’? I have to admit that it was not until maybe fifteen to twenty years ago that I really gave it much thought at all. It was when my life became involved with refugees coming to our country fleeing rebels, poverty, and other issues. In recent years as it approaches each year my mind wonders how other people are holding their services of communion. Do they have the elements that many of us deem as necessary? And if not, how do they proceed. A few years ago, I used the Sunday as a teaching time with grapes and some wheat kernels that we passed around and partook of instead of the juice and bread that is traditional. I shared how the grain needs to go through intense crushing to become the needed flour for bread. The grapes need to be crushed to give up the needed element for juice/wine. So, Jesus came to face a similar situation in order to give humanity the opportunity to have a renewed relationship with God. His body was crushed, bones broken, and his life-giving liquid blood was spilled from head wounds by the thorns, his wounded side by the sword, the lashes on his back by the whips, and the nails driven through his hands and his feet. 

The past year and a half,  the world has struggled intensely with issues we have not been able to control. There is Covid. There is war(s). There is rioting. There is unnecessary death. There is division everywhere. My friends, when Jesus was on this earth it was really not much different – but He came to offer to anyone who believes in Him and His death and resurrection the gift of life after this earthly life. He said that this gift of life, eternal life, would be worth dying for – and He led the example and died first. Let us read about His preparation before His death, which by the way, included His disciples at that time.  

Matthew 26 (The Message)

THE LAST SUPPER

26-29 During the meal, Jesus took and blessed the bread, broke it, and gave it to his disciples:

Take, eat. This is my body.

Taking the cup and thanking God, he gave it to them:

Drink this, all of you. This is my blood,
God’s new covenant poured out for many people
    for the forgiveness of sins.

“I’ll not be drinking wine from this cup again until that new day when I’ll drink with you in the kingdom of my Father.”

Jesus took His twelve disciples aside as He prepared for the final hours before His earthly death. It was an intense time for not only Jesus but for His disciples as well. We are told briefly of what happened between Jesus and the disciples, particularly Judas at this meal but I expect that it was a somber and quiet time. And when they were finished it tells us they all went to the Garden of Gethsemane, a place that they had been before but this time no doubt things happened a little differently. When they arrived, Jesus went off by Himself.

39 Going a little ahead, he fell on his face, praying, “My Father, if there is any way, get me out of this. But please, not what I want. You, what do you want?”

FATHER, WHAT DO YOU WANT?

Wow, God – have I ever taken even one time recently to ask of You, “What do You want of me?”. Your Son in His time of deepest distress, knowing well what was ahead of Him, set an example for us His followers. In the past year and a half, I have to admit that I probably have not gone into that deep place of prayer with You and asked of You – ‘Father, what is it that You want of me here in this situation in the world today?’. In fact, I have to wonder if my story would be similar to the next verses where Jesus speaks to His disciples. 

40-41 When he came back to his disciples, he found them sound asleep. He said to Peter, “Can’t you stick it out with me a single hour? Stay alert; be in prayer so you don’t wander into temptation without even knowing you’re in danger. There is a part of you that is eager, ready for anything in God. But there’s another part that’s as lazy as an old dog sleeping by the fire.”………

42 He then left them a second time. Again, he prayed, “My Father, if there is no other way than this, drinking this cup to the dregs, I’m ready. Do it your way.”

43-44 When he came back, he again found them sound asleep. They simply couldn’t keep their eyes open. This time he let them sleep on, and went back a third time to pray, going over the same ground one last time.

Jesus, in His distress, in His time of great struggle asked His Father if there was any other way to get out of the situation He was facing – yet, He yielded His Will to His Father God. But His disciples – Jesus says to them, ‘be alert – pray – so you don’t fall – in one sense you are wanting to follow God but there is a part of you as that is rather lazy spiritually.’ If Jesus were speaking to His disciples today as He is in prayer before His Father in heaven about our world this day in 2021 – how would Jesus address us? 

These verses have taken on a new meaning for me this year, 2021. As I meditated upon these last few verses, I have asked myself, “Am I like the disciples, asleep spiritually in this struggle of Covid, racial unrest, and world unrest?” I am finding myself challenged to open my spirit to God asking Him, ‘God, what is it You need from me today?” 

Tomorrow for World Wide Communion Sunday, we are invited to what I am calling a new beginning. A new beginning where we can begin to support one another as we celebrate Jesus’ earthly life, His death, and His resurrection giving us as believers the promised gift of eternal life with God in the end. (John 14:1-2) Jesus said: “Believe in me, because I am going to help my Father prepare a blessed home in the heavens for all who come and follow me.”

Communion Sunday 2

DRINKING GOD’S CUP TOGETHER

The invitation has been extended so many years ago 
By God Himself to humanity He created and continues to create each and every day;
It is an invitation to come and walk with Him in this world
So, when our last step here is taken, the next step will be our entrance into eternal glory.
God took the first step so many years ago
He sent His one and only Son as a baby, born into humanity,
He grew as a child experiencing life as a refugee,
Then growing and living within a community and even traveling to Jerusalem for the Passover celebration – 
He grew into adulthood and then He was commissioned to teach – 
To reveal to the world a new beginning, a new way of getting to know and follow God.
He chose twelve men to teach and train more deeply, 
Yet we know others were also profoundly affected 
Such as Mary, Martha, Lazarus as well as the many who were healed.
And then there were the final hours before He was crucified – 
He explained – His physical body would be broken, beaten and bruised like grain is before it becomes bread to sustain physical life;
His blood – which is the essence of physical life – would run from His physical wounds as juice runs from the fruit to sustain life;
Jesus died physically…..
BUT PRAISE GOD
Jesus came back to life spiritually…..
So today as people we celebrate all over the world,
This wonderful gift of life for our spiritual beings –
By remembering this wonderful gift Jesus gave to us all 
Two thousand years ago.
It is a gift that unites all of us worldwide into one family,
GOD’S FOREVER FAMILY!
PRAISE BE TO GOD THE FATHER,
PRAISE BE TO GOD THE SON,
PRAISE BE TO GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT,
THE GREAT THREE IN ONE.
AMEN AND AMEN.

FreerangeFriday: Welcoming the New Season

by Lilly Lewin
written by Lilly Lewin

By Lilly Lewin

The season of Fall is upon us in North America and somehow, it’s already October!  The leaves are thinking of turning here in Nashville; we just need some cooler nights and a bit of rain to make that happen. Maybe you need a bit of rain or some change of weather to get you in the mood for a new season! The Old Testament reading for the Canadian Thanksgiving Day and Harvest celebration Sunday is from the book of Joel. Read through the passage and allow the Holy Spirit to speak to you today about this New Season. What do you notice? What brings your hope? What does God want you to hear today?

JOEL 2: 21-27 NRSV

Do not fear, O soil;
be glad and rejoice,
for the Lord has done great things!

Do not fear, you animals of the field,
for the pastures of the wilderness are green;

the tree bears its fruit,
the fig tree and vine give their full yield.

O children of Zion, be glad
and rejoice in the Lord your God;

for he has given the early rain for your vindication, he has poured down for you abundant rain,
the early and the later rain, as before.

The threshing floors shall be full of grain, the vats shall overflow with wine and oil.

I will repay you for the years
that the swarming locust has eaten,

the hopper, the destroyer, and the cutter, my great army, which I sent against you.

You shall eat in plenty and be satisfied, and praise the name of the Lord your God, who has dealt wondrously with you.

And my people shall never again be put to shame.

You shall know that I am in the midst of Israel,
and that I, the Lord, am your God and there is no other. And my people shall never again be put to shame.

harvest vegatables

Fall Harvest

How are you feeling as you transition into the new Fall Season? What locusts have you been dealing with lately? What has been eaten away that you’d like to see restored? Talk to Jesus about this. What HOPE do you find in this passage from Joel?

DISH AND SOIL

DISH AND SOIL

FIND SOME POTTING SOIL, A DISH FILLED WITH SOIL FROM YOUR GARDEN OR A POTTED PLANT  and FIX SOME TOAST with JAM or find some FIG NEWTONS TO PRAY WITH. You can do this prayer practice on your own, with your small group, or even with your entire church group. Just have enough fig newtons or jam and bread for everyone. You might create a slide show with photos of fall fields if you use slides in your church gatherings. Give people time to pray with and process the questions. You could even have pen and paper and have people respond to the questions in writing.

READ the Joel passage again and AS YOU LOOK AT THE SOIL and the photos of fall, consider your life right now.

plant and soil

Consider your soil

Consider the SOIL…and your life.
It’s time for harvest. Picking the good food and the fruits of the land.
The old crops are tilled under.
Things go to seed.
The field, the soil, is allowed to lay fallow.
The soil, the earth, is allowed to rest.
The soil, is allowed to prepare for a new season after the rain.

What is your soil like today? Ready for harvest, in need of lying fallow? What is the harvest? What is the “good food” in your life? Take time to be grateful. Can you see this season as a gift? Do you need to give yourself permission to rest? How can you allow this season to be a time of preparation? Are you willing to receive what this season has to offer? Ask Jesus to show you.

stopsign 2

take time to rest

Let’s Pray…

The Creator is inviting you to the harvest feast…the table is prepared with love.

Milk and Honey overflow, fresh bread and new wine. Jam and Bread and Biscuits.

Feed us/Feed me Jesus with the food we/I need today. You know just what we/I need!

You know right where we are and you know all our circumstances.

Help us to remember the bread of life that sustains us and the sweetness of your love. 

Help us to rest in the palm of your hand. AMEN

EAT YOUR BREAD AND JAM or your fig newton cookie and celebrate the sweetness of God’s love!
