Sempermom

The friendship of mothers is best realize as we pray for each other in the vocation we share. We are daughters of the New Eve. It is Mary who waits for us, journeys with us, cries with us, laughs with us, teaches us, and prays with us. As we retire in the evenings, may we find joy in knowing that, we may be someone's mother by day, but by night, we sleep in peace as her daughters, first.

Search
I searched for You till You found me.
Traveling far, to where You are.
I sought You there near the ocean.
Greater than any distance between us.
I sought You there in these waters
and found You in the waters
flowing from Your side.
Knowing now,
I need not ever leave Your side.

I searched for You till You found me.
Seeking light throughout the night.
I sought You in the sunrise,
brilliant light warming life surrounding me.
I sought You there in its flaming glow
And found You in the patient spark
That burns within my soul
Knowing now
Your Love burns brightly in my soul.

I searched for You till You found me.
Being there, where faith is shared.
I sought You there in the Temple.
Spoken prayer where many share
and gather in Your name.
I sought You there in Your glory
and found You there in glory
In the humble Living Bread of Life.
Knowing now,
Your Love dwells in the Bread of Life.

I searched for You till You found me.
Seeking peace in the Gentle Breeze.
I sought You there in the forest.
Seeing trees, moving free in the gentle breeze.
I sought You there in this guiding breeze
and found You in the Breath that brings
the gentle Whispers to my heart.
Knowing now,
Your Peace guides the Whispers of my heart.
Knowing now,
Your Love was never very far.
