“재의 수요일에 핀 첫 수선화”

시간이 처음 갈라질 때,빛은 어둠에서 걸어나와—허공 위에떨리는 가느다란 선 하나를 긋는다. 창조는 숨을 멈추었다가다시 내쉬었고,그 단 한 순간에하나님의 형상이 빚어졌다: 아직 소진되지 않은 기쁨,만물을 따르는그 어떤 그림자에도닿지 않은 밝음. 우리는 그린다.노래한다.쓴다. 그리고 기억과 역사, “내가 바로 그 사람입니다,”정진함도 그 말의 … Continue reading

“은퇴자의 아침 기도”

주님,오늘도 제 눈을 열어 주시니감사합니다.숨 쉬게 하시니이 하루를 시작하기에이미 충분합니다. 매 순간 알게 하소서—제 마지막 숨결 뒤에도세상은당신의 손 안에서계속될 것임을.그러므로이 순간에도 평안이 내 영혼 속에 머물어 주소서. 밤새 굳어진 몸을침대에서 천천히 펴며감사의 호흡으로십오분, 어둠에서제 몸과 마음이다시 빛으로 돌아오게 하소서. 아내의 … Continue reading
