Creation Time: Living the Season

Mountain Sunday – September 23

REFLECTION AND MEDITATION FOR MOUNTAIN SUNDAY 


Isaiah 65:17a

“Look! I’m creating a new heaven and a new earth…”


God is always creating things anew. Even as one thing
dies, another comes to life. As plant and animals return
to the earth, they nurture the growth of new beings. In
this kind of world, how can we do anything but rejoice?
Indeed, the prophet Isaiah declares how wonderful life
can be in God’s new world. When we remember our place
in Creation, and how we can support one another, life on
God’s “holy mountain” – this planet – becomes wonderful
beyond our imagination. Even the wolf and lion will
lie down together!


■■What are the dreams you have for Creation?



Spiritual Practices for Mountain Sunday


Connect with the rhythm of Earth by doing some drumming.
Any kinds of drums can work; if you don’t have
any, find other surfaces that you can use: your legs, a
book, a table, pots and pans from the kitchen, and so
on. Use your imagination! Join with others to create
rhythms, and imagine yourselves connected with Earth.
If possible, do this outdoors, with your shoes off, and feel
your connection to the Earth.



In the context of Mountain Sunday, go out and find
a mountain. This need not be a huge snow-covered
peak, but can be any kind of hill. If there is absolutely
no hill available, what else can you climb up on? Find
somewhere that is higher than other places, and look
around. What do you see? Especially, what can you
see that you wouldn’t be able to see from down below?
What kind of new perspective does this give you on the
world? Say a word of thanks and praise to God before
you climb down.


"My Device" by Michael Leurig

We talked about this on Sky Sunday last week!


 El Teide Video

On a computer with Internet access go to http://vimeo.
com/22439234 to see Terje Sorgjerd’s time lapse movie
of El Teide, Spain’s highest mountain.


A Prayer for Mountain Sunday

Where we see limits and impossibility, O God, you
see a future with promise. You invite us to dream of
a time where there is justice and harmony for all the
earth. Guide us to know, deeply, your imagination
for us and our potential. Help us to gain wisdom
from the past and yet to move into the future free
from past ways of harm and destruction. Amen.

Creation Time: Living the Season

Sky Sunday – September 16

REFLECTION AND MEDITATION FOR SKY SUNDAY

Psalm 19:1a
“Heaven is declaring God’s glory…”

The unbridled praise of God’s creative power in Psalm 19 helps to counter the negative imagery of Jeremiah 4:23–28. Yet, while this latter passage speaks of Earth having no hope, still God proclaims, “I will not destroy it completely.”
Even in the midst of God’s anger and despair at humankind – often for ways we have abused Creation – still God does not abandon us, or the Earth which is our home. Indeed, we can look to the heavens and feel the power and presence of God.
■■
How do you feel God present in the sky?
Take a breath, and feel the wondrous presence of God in that air, offering you the gift of a moment of being.

 

Sky Sunday: Connecting with our heartbeat

We are called to listen to the heartbeat of Earth. Try to locate your heartbeat and listen to it. The easiest way to do this is with a stethoscope. However, they are often not readily available. Luckily, there are a few other ways that usually work – although you have to be kind of still and patient to listen. Place a hand over your heart – a few inches below your chin, and just to the left. Optionally, try placing two fingers on the inside of your wrist, or place two fingers along the side of your neck. 
As you quietly notice your heartbeat, imagine the heartbeat of the earth. How do you think you are connected? Jump up and down in place, or run a short distance and back. Try to hear your heartbeat and notice what has happened. What kinds of things might change the rhythm and heartbeat of Earth?

 The Spiritual Practice of Creative Expression

 

 Directions
1.Sit comfortably outside or in a place where you can see through a window to whatever is outside.
2.Take time to notice everything that is there whether of nature or of human creation.
Notice the places where the two meet.
3.Think about the ways that nature and human creation interface for good or for ill.
4.Turn to the Bible and read Jeremiah 4:23–28.
5.Notice how this passage begins with this line: “After this, I looked around.” (Contemporary English Version)
6.Take paper and pen and begin writing with the same line, “After this, I looked around,” giving expression to what you actually see in the same way that Jeremiah
did. Remember that Jeremiah was a poet as well as a prophet. He chose to express the vision he saw in poetic terms. You can, too.
7.When you are finished writing, think about Jeremiah as a God-inspired writer and prophetic voice. Think of yourself as one who also has something of God to say.
8. Share what you have written in any way that seems right to you.


A Prayer for Sky Sunday

Creator God, you desire to be in relationship with us, and for us to be awestruck by your beauty. May our attention move upward and outward to notice you and your handiwork in the sky, in the stars and in the warmth of the sun. May we be reminded that you delight in all of creation and speak beyond words. Guide us to respond and to be claimed by wonder, connection, to you and each other. Amen.
