I feel the beauty of you in the centre of my living.

[Gabrielle Dean]

You big, bright, beautiful God, 

this is my day for flying!

I reach out to the bigness of you, 

I touch the brightness of you

and I feel the beauty of you

in the centre of my living.

You are sun to my Icarus,

candle to my moth.

Today I fly

and am dissolved in you!

Joy Cowley, A Time to Pray

I put this prayer in Sunday’s pew sheet (for Ascension), but repeating it for those who weren’t there and those who might like to see it again. The flowers are also Sunday’s offering.
