Scripture: Philippians 3:17-4:1     Luke 13:31-35

The frontiers of God's love are as limitless as the silence. Entering into silence with a sense of the boundless, becomes a source of our awareness of God's spousal love for each of us, inviting us to faithful response.

God's longing love for us is expressed through the images of a hen, an eagle and two sparrows.
