Scripture

Mark 4:26–29 (NRSV)

He also said, “The kingdom of God is as if someone would scatter seed on the ground,

and would sleep and rise night and day, and the seed would sprout and grow,

he does not know how.

The earth produces of itself, first the stalk, then the head, then the full grain in the head.

But when the grain is ripe, at once he goes in with his sickle, because the harvest has come.”



Refrain

Teach us to see, O God,

what is already before us.



Quote

Meister Eckhart

“The soul must forget itself and all things

and must be empty of all images.

For where there is emptiness,

there is room for God to work.

Nothing is so unlike God as distraction,

and nothing so like God

as stillness.”
