holy communion with my brothers and sisters

"In the heart of each being there is an immortal soul with holy aspirations. I feel their hallowed essence when I pray. There is no one of them who I can be without. Just as there are many stars in the heavens, so also there are many souls and I need them all in my praise of God. There's not one of them in whom I am not in communion in that sacred apex where we all live, move, and have our being." – Paul Claudel, 19th-century French poet
Affirmative Prayer: Infinite Presence. Today, as I pray, I unite with soulful beings everywhere. We are joined together in our defeats and triumphs. We are one in our hardships and in joy. I give thanks for this holy communion, and I bless all my brothers and sisters in my recognition of the Divine. Thank you, God, forever. Amen. – Rev. Scott
