In January of 2010, a small group of parishioners at St. Martin's Episcopal Church in Williamsburg, Virginia, joined together in morning prayer and reflection on the Rule of St. Benedict. We began reading Joan Chittester's daily reflections on the Rule in her book, The Rule of Benedict: Insights for the Ages, and continue as community with daily readings, in Morning Prayer at the church on Wednesdays, and on these pages.
Reading From the Rule
The first link at the right will take you to today's reading from the Rule of St. Benedict!
Joan's last line "...grasp what you cannot" resonates and reminds me of a t-shirt or sign post I saw recently. It read close to " Grace is not a Prayer but a Way of Life".
