I guess this is a little old-fashioned for many … but I pray the modern way - on an App: “Pray As You Go.”
It’s 6:30, and I realise if I’m quick, I can get myself down to Broad St and join the manager of The Ark Coffee Shop (A faith-based enterprise) when she opens up at 7am for Christ-time, a word I picked because I don’t want to use “prayer” twice in one go.
Annie wasn’t there, so I headed off round Newent Lake,on a walking meditation. Another get-around for the P word again.
My soul becalmed, I took myself back to the cafe and spent a wonderful hour gossiping the gospel with Annie, mulling over our thoughts and failings with the connivance of the Holy Spirit.
Well set-up for the task ahead, viz to lead a Bible Study on Christ’s Passion, I walked home, completing my day’s allocation of Steps, to prepare.
I took a detour behind Culver St along Peacock Brook with the Cornell Bird App open and recording, it was an amazingly productive 8 minutes:
I used another App (YouTube) to download Scott Hahn’s talk, “The Fourth Cup.” Easiest prep for a Bible Study ever.
“Now that, friends is a Bible Study,” I remarked on closing the Mac, deeming that to be the only comment needed. Well worth an hour of your time, if you’re so inclined.
Home to cook lunch, then relax with Netflix and a wonderful spy story, “Gray.” Many of the seven deadly sins appear in every episode, but I reckon I’ve acquired sufficient Holy Brownie Points to be excused a penance.
