READINGS
“The true way to be humble is not to stoop until you’re smaller than yourself, but to stand at your real height against some higher nature.”
- Phillips Brooks
“It is while you are patiently toiling at the little tasks of life that the meaning and shape of the great whole of life dawn on you.”
- Phillips Brooks
"What matters is not where we are, but who -- what real things -- are with us. "
- Robert Capon
BENEDICTION
O Lord,
refresh our sensibilities.
Give us this day our daily taste.
Restore to us soups that spoons will not sink in,
and sauces which are never the same twice.
Raise up among us stews with more gravy
than we have bread to blot it with,
and casseroles that put starch and substance
in our limp modernity.
Take away our fear of fat,
and make us glad of the oil
that ran upon Aaron’s beard.
Give us pasta with a hundred fillings,
and rice in a thousand variations.
Above all,
give us grace to live as true people—
to fast till we come to a refreshed sense
of what we have and then to dine gratefully
on all that comes to hand.
Drive far from us,
O Most Bountiful,
all creatures of air and darkness;
cast out the demons that possess us;
deliver us from the fear of calories
and the bondage of nutrition;
and set us free once more in our own land,
where we shall serve thee as thou hast blessed us—
with the dew of heaven,
the fatness of the earth,
and plenty of corn and wine.
Amen
-Robert Capon, from The Supper Of The Lamb: A Culinary Reflection
RESOURCE
Excerpt from The Supper Of The Lamb: A Culinary Reflection
PRACTICE
Set aside 15 minutes. Sit down with a piece of paper in front of you. Ask the Holy Spirit to help you 'stand at your real height'. Begin to right down statements beginning with "The truth is..." Write statements until the time is up. What do you notice? What was difficult to write? What feels like provision? What feels like new life?
