Covenant

Welcome to Musings! As participants in the conversations on this blog, we covenant together that we will maintain a spirit of good will, of openness to each other, and of mutual respect in our discussions; that we will listen to each other and endeavor to understand each other, especially those whose views differ from ours; and that we will remember that we are brothers and sisters in Christ.

Why Musings?

  • The Musings Page will be a place to consider thought-provoking, evocative, sometimes polemical but not overtly political, writings, quotes, ideas, and poetry on the Christian life in all its facets: spiritual, religious, ethical, and practical.

Little Prayer in November

That I am alive, I thank
no one in particular;
and yet am thankful, mostly,

although I frame no prayer

but this one: Creator
Spirit, as you have come,
come again, even in November,

on these short days, fogbound.

Poem: “Little Prayer in November” by Lee Rudolph, from A Woman and a Man, Ice-Fishing.
