Into The Silence Of My Being

It seems that we can properly name that the hierarchical church has defined religious life and that the current events ask that now is

the time for Providence communities and associates to

name who we are define ourselves in the light of Vatican II as it has

shaped us

Trust is palpable in the charism The day was energizing to

continue in this trust We are with persons who see believe and live it A connection is to learn more

about it

It is essential and not easy at all Allow God to have the last word God leaves us free to be who we

are and to respond to Godrsquos love as we can

Powerful moment to sit with 300 people in silence Need time to

connect value experienced by the music between segments

Process of taking in stress and breathing out peace

Give over freely no one can take from us whether it be my seat in

the plane or canonical status Give freelymdashor an end to our

community as we know it Give freely

PROVIDENCEmdasha hope-filled name Response of praying together and PONDERING modeling a peaceful

action in the face of violence

To make Providence more visible we need to pondermdashhold care

and transform the tension that has been created

Providence people standmdashfirm with quiet strength

I can connect dots only in retrospect Canrsquot see in a given

moment of experience

Hope is not wishing

In contemplative sitting we donrsquot over-burden others with our own

agenda Shared silence can be supportive for others

Future of religious life is in transition and those entrusted with

it are to be pioneersmdashtrusting surrendering and abandoning

Providence people are called to find Godrsquos kiss in our deepest

selves and in the events around us to find how God calls us to more

I feel the connection even though I donrsquot know

Providence is the practice of living what we know and relying on the

God that is within us

Trust needs to be based on hope

There was energy in the image of the water purifier we take in the

toxin

Our understanding of Providence is to name and frame the question

around the signs of the times (LCWR and women) to transform

Before you put on Jesus consider how you would look on wood

Different missions but one heart

Touched by the environment of the people heremdashyou can see it feel it

experience it In health care the kindness of the sisters to their caregivers and the care of the

caregivers given back

To practice daily the art of holding the tensions ndash to do it in little things in big things ndash to do it

without resentment with unconditional love Sort of ldquopay it forwardrdquo We donrsquot have to do it

alone

Jesus was not successful but was faithful This is really important for religious life ndash diminishment aging

finances are not as important as faithfulness and being faithful

within

All are here for the same reason The inside wake-up call ndash none of

us will be the same

Implication We are challenged to think larger than we experience

our charisms now

A blessing today is being with people who are not afraid to ask

tough questions We must learn to live with the questions We ALL of

us struggle together

How can we know when to give something before itrsquos taken away

Providence people need to ponder events etc so that our response

may be authentic resistance absorption witness

Choosing a big God ndash the cosmic God not a rescuing God but a

redeeming God

Connections Standing ndash sittingWaiting ndash acting

Absorbing ndash fleeingrejecting abuseBalance ndash we have a luxury and a

privilege to witness to the truth for the benefit of the Church

How can we gratefully absorb the pain violence evil the excluded and marginalized in such a gentle

provident way that God can transform and heal with a compassionate Divine love

Trust and you will not fear Fear and you have no trust

Mysticism ndash the Kiss of God Nature ndash helps us to know the kiss

of God

The big idea from today ndash WE can be mystics

Let us live with no strings attached

Go to where all is precious in you ndash act from there ndash be true to who

you are

What is God asking us today Speak the truth ndash donrsquot hide it

Trust Read the sign of the times Wash the feet of one another

Calling us to a deeper approach to LCWRRome reality ndash calling us to

metanoia not paranoia

Connection between our deepest center and Providence in our lives

If we donrsquot speak out against evil we enable it

If we believe and accept that we are in Godrsquos image then we can get

in touch with the love and life which we are to reflect to each

one

ldquoAll will be wellrdquo does not equal ldquoOh wellrdquo We have to do what we

are called to do

Living without the answers

Ponder the abundant tensions but not alone rather in community

Right here in this assembly to absorb some of the evil re LCWR What is done to one group is harmful to all the faithful

Right here in this assembly to absorb some of the evil re LCWR What is done to one group is harmful to all the faithful

We saw a big connection between Providence spirituality and the cross

We can be compassionate even

though we canrsquot be perfect

Do what we do every day but do it freely

Providence people standmdashfirm with quiet strength

I can connect dots only in retrospect Canrsquot see in a given

moment of experience

Hope is not wishing

In contemplative sitting we donrsquot over-burden others with our own

agenda Shared silence can be supportive for others

Future of religious life is in transition and those entrusted with

it are to be pioneersmdashtrusting surrendering and abandoning

Providence people are called to find Godrsquos kiss in our deepest

selves and in the events around us to find how God calls us to more

I feel the connection even though I donrsquot know

Providence is the practice of living what we know and relying on the

God that is within us

Trust needs to be based on hope

There was energy in the image of the water purifier we take in the

toxin

Our understanding of Providence is to name and frame the question

around the signs of the times (LCWR and women) to transform

Before you put on Jesus consider how you would look on wood

Different missions but one heart

Touched by the environment of the people heremdashyou can see it feel it

experience it In health care the kindness of the sisters to their caregivers and the care of the

caregivers given back

To practice daily the art of holding the tensions ndash to do it in little things in big things ndash to do it

without resentment with unconditional love Sort of ldquopay it forwardrdquo We donrsquot have to do it

alone

Jesus was not successful but was faithful This is really important for religious life ndash diminishment aging

finances are not as important as faithfulness and being faithful

within

All are here for the same reason The inside wake-up call ndash none of

us will be the same

Implication We are challenged to think larger than we experience

our charisms now

A blessing today is being with people who are not afraid to ask

tough questions We must learn to live with the questions We ALL of

us struggle together

How can we know when to give something before itrsquos taken away

Providence people need to ponder events etc so that our response

may be authentic resistance absorption witness

privilege to witness to the truth for the benefit of the Church

How can we gratefully absorb the pain violence evil the excluded and marginalized in such a gentle

provident way that God can transform and heal with a compassionate Divine love

Touched by the environment of the people heremdashyou can see it feel it

experience it In health care the kindness of the sisters to their caregivers and the care of the

caregivers given back

To practice daily the art of holding the tensions ndash to do it in little things in big things ndash to do it

without resentment with unconditional love Sort of ldquopay it forwardrdquo We donrsquot have to do it

alone

Jesus was not successful but was faithful This is really important for religious life ndash diminishment aging
