In every person we meet, especially those who cause us discomfort, we find an opportunity for us to grow, to learn, to go further along the path of transformation that is our purpose in life. Every single one is our teacher. May the next week bring you many such moments of meeting that help you...Benediction | By Amy Zucker Morgenstern | January 2, 2020 | From WorshipWebTagged as: 1st Principle (Worth & Dignity), 3rd Principle (Acceptance & Spiritual Growth), 4th Principle (Truth & Meaning), Challenge, Change, Growth, Humanism, Humility, Listening, Searching, Secular, Transformation -
What I do know for sure is that hope matters. One of the best things we can do is to hold hope for someone when that person cannot hold it for themselves.Reflection | By Elea Kemler | October 2, 2019 | From Braver/WiserTagged as: Hope, Listening, Ministry, Presence, Searching -
Good morning! Do you notice anything different about me today? That’s right, I’m wearing glasses. Have you seen glasses like these before? Any idea where I might have gotten them? They came from a 3-D movie theatre and a movie where, if you put on these special glasses, some of things you see...Time for All Ages | By Shari Woodbury | September 12, 2017 | From WorshipWebTagged as: 2nd Principle (Justice, Equity, & Compassion), Anti-Oppression, Justice, Limitations, Listening, Multiculturalism, Searching, Truth -
Night has its own kind of beauty, different than the beauty of day. Night is a time of sleep and dreams and inward visions, A time of pause within activity. Darkness is an invitation to imagining and storytelling, And to using ears instead of eyes to listen to the world in its stillness....Meditation | By Gary Kowalski | June 3, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: Balance, Beauty, Death, Earth-Centered, Imagination, Listening, Mystery, Searching, Silence, Solitude, Summer Solstice, Vision, Winter Solstice / Yule -
Why did I listen to Your calling, O God? Why did I step out on faith, O Love? Why did I lift my feet, ignore my fear, and run toward the unknown? Now I am far from home. My heart aches for my familiar land, for people who greeted me with kisses. I can’t see the way back—it doesn’t exist. I...Poetry | By Angela Herrera | March 23, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: Despair, Direct Experience, Fear, Home, Listening, Searching -
Walk the maze within your heart: guide your steps into its questioning curves. This labyrinth is a puzzle leading you deeper into your own truths. Listen in the twists and turns.

Listen: a wisdom within you calls to a wisdom beyond you and in that...Poetry | By Leslie Takahashi | March 23, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: Direct Experience, Listening, Searching, Truth, Unitarian Universalism, Wisdom

Out of the depths I cry: Who will hear my voice? Out of the pain I cry: Who will make space for my living and my dying? Out of the years I cry: Who will remember? Who will remember? My soul awaits: More than those who watch for the morning. More than those who watch for the morning. —inspired by...Quote | By Marjorie Bowens-Wheatley | January 21, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: Christianity, Death, Despair, Listening, Meaning, Pain, Searching, Unitarian Universalism, Wonder -
Go now in peace. Deeply regard each other. Truly listen to each other. Speak what each of you must speak. Be ready in any moment to disarm your own heart, and always live as if a realm of love had begun. So be it. Blessed be. Amen.Closing | By Barbara Hamilton-Holway | January 21, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: Listening, Meaning, Presence, Searching, Unitarian Universalism

Emmanuel means "God is with us." Who is your Emmanuel? Who is your "God is with us," the one you were promised, the one you have been waiting for? For the ancient prophet Isaiah, he was a boy soon to be born who would guide the people of Judah back to peace and harmony with God....Meditation | By Sarah Movius Schurr | January 21, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: Advent, Beauty, Belief, Christianity, Christmas Eve / Christmas, Direct Experience, God, Listening, Searching, Tradition, Transcendence, Winter Solstice / Yule, Wonder -
Thou that hearest, listen -- In the beginning is the cry -- inarticulate -- inchoate -- essential. The primal cry of desire. Much later comes the word -- ordered -- various -- pattern on a dark glass....Meditation | By Barbara J Pescan | January 21, 2015 | From WorshipWebTagged as: Faith, Listening, Searching
