Episode 456

In this episode of the guided lectio divina podcast, we’re continuing our series on Wise Lessons for Graceful Living using selections from Anne Morrow Lindbergh’s book Gift from the Sea.  This week’s theme is Solitude and Centerdness.

…[W]e are hungry, and not knowing what we are hungry for, we fill up the void with endless distractions, always at hand–unnecessary errands, compulsive duties, social niceties.  And for the most part, to little purpose.  Suddenly the spring is dry; the well is empty.

Episode 455

In this episode of the guided lectio divina podcast, we’re continuing our series on Wise Lessons for Graceful Living using selections from Anne Morrow Lindbergh’s book Gift from the Sea.  This week’s theme is Harmony and Balance.

[The problem] is more basically: how to remain whole in the midst of the distractions of life; how to remain balanced, no matter what centrifugal forces tend to pull one off center; how to remain strong, no matter what shocks come in at the periphery and tend to crack the hub of the wheel.

In this episode of the guided lectio divina podcast, we’re continuing our series on Wise Lessons for Graceful Living using selections from Anne Morrow Lindbergh’s book Gift from the Sea.  This week’s theme is Harmony and Balance.

How much we need, and how arduous of attainment is that steadiness preached in all rules for holy living.  How desirable and how distant is the ideal of the contemplative, artist or saint–the inner inviolable core, the single eye.

Episode 453

In this episode of the guided lectio divina podcast, we’re continuing our series on Wise Lessons for Graceful Living using selections from Anne Morrow Lindbergh’s book Gift from the Sea.  This week’s theme is Harmony and Balance.

The pattern of our lives is essentially circular.  We must be open to all points of the compass…stretched out, exposed, sensitive like a spider’s web to each breeze that blows…. How difficult…to achieve a balance in the midst of these contradictory tensions, and yet how necessary for the proper functioning of our lives.

Episode 452

In this episode of the guided lectio divina podcast, we’re continuing our series on Wise Lessons for Graceful Living using selections from Anne Morrow Lindbergh’s book Gift from the Sea.  This week’s theme is Harmony and Balance.

I mean to lead a simple life, to choose a simple shell I can carry easily–like a hermit crab. But I do not. I find that my frame of life does not foster simplicity….This is not the life of simplicity but the life of multiplicity…It leads not to unification but to fragmentation.  It does not bring grace; it destroys the soul.

I want…to live “in grace” as much of the time as possible…an inner harmony, essentially spiritual, which can be translated to outward harmony…a state of inner spiritual grace from which I could function and give as I was meant to in the eye of God.
