Ignatius’ image of God — a busy, active God right here — in our everyday world, in our work, and relationships — working to set things right. Jim Manney
take… eat…
this is my body…
given for you
morning rubies
spilling ribbons
painting tangerine skies
take… eat…
this is my body…
given for you
whiff of black beans brewing
sailing
to mounted spaces
take… eat…
this is my body…
given for you
leaping peeping
snooping sniffing
unbridled pup delight
take… eat…
this is my body…
given for you
ponderosa towers whisper
bent boughs bearing
snowy silence
take… eat…
this is my body…
given for you
shimmering darkness
dappled awe stretching
93 billion light years from here
what is the one thing
the One thing that weds
magnificent morning
sublime coffee beans
curious pup
towering pine
unfathomable universe
fragile spider’s web?
take… eat…
this is my body…
given for you

Jim Manney’s quote is found in today’s selection in An Ignatian Book of Days by Jim Manney is a series of daily reflections from the Spiritual Wisdom of St. Ignatius of Loyola. Throughout the book we hear the voices of St. Ignatius as well as many great thinkers and writers, long gone and present day, each uniquely revealing the way of finding God in all things. And that is my intention; to find God/Divine Presence/Ultimate Reality in whatever presents itself to me each day in 2024.
Each day I read, reflect and write on the selection, hoping to articulate the ways in which I come to know God/Divine Presence/Ultimate Reality via personal experience, impelled by the leading of my inner life.
