Episode 2

Caterpillar

Psalm 19:1-4

1 The heavens declare the glory of God;

   the skies proclaim the work of his hands.

2 Day after day they pour forth speech;

   night after night they reveal knowledge.

3 They have no speech, they use no words;

   no sound is heard from them.

4 Yet their voice goes out into all the earth,

   their words to the ends of the world.

“Look at the trees, really look at them. Take a flower and allow its beauty and symmetry to sink deep into your mind and heart. Listen to the birds–they are messengers of God. Watch the little creatures that creep upon the earth. These are humble acts, to be sure, but sometimes God reaches us profoundly in these simple ways if we will quiet ourselves and listen.” (Foster, p.31)

How can we meditate on a bug?

Fat, Green Caterpillar crossing road as I was struggling with pressure at Maywood. I noticed it while I was running, had opted for no music while I ran as a way to give space.

Challenge:

Take something in nature and meditate on it (and its Creator) for minimum of 15 minutes. Be ready to discuss the process at group.
