Book Of Experience

Lent 2023 | Day 28 | Saturday, March 25

Week No. 05

I let go of my desire for safety and security.

• Read The Welcoming Prayer

  Welcome, welcome, welcome.
  I welcome everything that comes to me today
  because I know it is for my healing.

  I welcome all thoughts, feelings, emotions, persons, situations, and conditions.

  I let go of my desire for power and control.

  I let go of my desire for affection, esteem, approval and pleasure.

  I let go of my desire for survival and security.

  I let go of my desire to change any situation, condition, person or myself.

  I open to the love and presence of God and God’s action within.

  Amen.

Quote Of The Day

Why do we try to express in everyday language affections that no language can describe? Those who have not known such things do not understand them, for they could learn of them more clearly only through the book of experience, where God’s grace itself is the teacher.

- Guido II

Prompt Of The Day

Write about something that you’ve learned in your life through the “book of experience.” Perhaps you’ve known about it — even said you agreed with it... but once you lived it... then you really knew it.

How did experiencing it make it different for you than simply knowing about and ascenting to the idea of it?
