Reflections from reflections! (Mainly images this time!)
Images from my time at reflections gardens
On my first sabbatical it was good to return to Iona, unfortunately due to redevelopment work currently taking place I haven't been able to arrange a return this year but hope to again before too long!
At the end of my time of retreat and reflection last week I used the term 'thin'. The founder of the Iona community George MacLeod described Iona as a 'thin place where only a tissue paper separates the material from the spiritual' I wrote more fully about it on my blog from our visit to Iona.
Last week I sensed that 'thinnest' and for it I was extremely grateful! One of the ways I encountered it was through the reflection gardens, still early in the growing season but already full of richness and inspiration...
'Letting Go'
As well as prayer, walking, running and reading. Over some of my time at the hermitage I listened to music and found myself singing and even dancing!
Although musically this particular song isn't one of my favorites the words spoke very powerfully to me during the time at the hermitage and in them I heard God's quiet voice at work.
