A Sensile Soul
You visited me in a dream.
A rarity. Our time together in my sleep was so real, our conversation a difficult and yet precious thing.
We have not seen each other or even spoken in years.
And so I wonder if you are okay.
Enough so that I make the choice to reach out to you.
There is so much now to distract me from the inner nudge.
God grant me a sensile soul.

Whatever Is . . . A Weekly Morning Liturgy
It has become more and more apparent to me that I need to have greater awareness of what I am thinking about.In anger management work, there is a caution concerning negative self-talk. That voice has also been described as the inner critic—the words we heard or picked up along the way that took root inside our minds, pricking us into believing we’re not quite good enough, haven’t done enough, cannot be loved enough.
The multitude of distractions, the omnipresence of digital din, the 24/7 reporting of tragic or violent events, fear- and anxiety-inducing information overload, along with the “regular” stresses of life, all serve to create a cacophony of mental noise.
How then do we hear the still, small voice?
How do we cultivate a different way of thinking, one that does not deny the suffering of the world but refuses to allow fear, anger, and despair to have the final word?
I have been returning to the invitation of Philippians 4:8: whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable—think about these things.
Not as an escape from reality, but as a way of becoming more fully present to it.
Out of this reflection came Whatever Is… A Weekly Morning Liturgy, a small devotional resource intended to help establish a rhythm of prayerful attention, one morning at a time.
It is an invitation to begin the day with intention, to attend to what is good and life-giving, and perhaps, amid all the noise, to hear again that still, small voice.
The book is available in paperback or as a digital PDF through Blurb.

"Trusting Inner Knowing"
In a world that trains us to listen to others first, how do we come to recognize and trust what we know in that still place inside? On laying down arms against ourselves--and against nature. Because what's inside us and what's outside us is all the same nature.
