Seven Sacred Pauses: Mindfully Through the Hours of the Day

Sally ArchambaultPastor's Blog

~ Macrina Wiederkehr

Have I been a good memory in anyone else’s life today?

Have the ears of my heart opened to the voice of God?

Have the ears of my heart opened to the needs of my sisters and brothers?

Have the eyes of my heart beheld the Divine face in all created things?

What do I know, but live as though I do not know?

Have I been a good student of the hours today?

How have I affected the quality of this day?

Have I been blind or deaf to the blessings of the day?

Is there anyone, including myself, whom I need to forgive?

When did I experience my heart open wide today?

Have worked with joy or drudgery?

Have I waited with grace or impatience?

What is the one thing in my life that needs attention?
