Church without walls

Church without walls – just look around –

It’s wherever you want it to be –

All you have to do is…

Love one another and respect the earth.

Be willing to think outside the box,

open yourself to…

blue skies, flowing rivers, trees, gray clouds,

meadows, ridges, valleys, mountains, dragonflies,

butterflies, birds, and bees, thundering seas, all

creatures great and small – all part of God’s

endless beauty. Be reverent wherever you find

yourself – for that is church without walls.

…”if you do not have the capacity to be awestruck

at the sight of the majesties of nature you are

missing part of the usual human endowment.”
(From Reverence Renewing a Forgotten Virtue by Paul Woodruff)
