Celtic Daily Prayer: Prayers and Readings from the Northumbria Community
- Brand: Unbranded
Description
They are born out of our Community’s story, have been lived and prayed throughout our journey, and enshrine our ethos. Some find it helpful to make a point of saying it whilst moving around (whilst preparing lunch for instance) as a reminder to pray as we work and work as we pray.
After the scripture readings and meditations, there is an opportunity to pray whatever is on your mind and heart, offering to God the concerns of the day, your personal needs and prayers for other people. We load an article each month entitled Daily Readings during…… which provides information on the selected readings for the current month.I usually do the morning prayer myself wherever I am at home or working at a hotel away or waiting in my car. By using the Web site, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by the Terms and Conditions. We have used it as a family around the table, as a church for weekend retreats, as well as for personal prayer times. The bonus for me [other than the beauty of its prayers] is that timewise it's a lot more user friendly for someone with a busy schedule [that'll be most of us then ;o)]. The digital version also includes the Scripture inline with the text, AND music audio for each of the sung liturgies.
Many have found that the use of the CD whilst travelling to or from work by car can be very helpful. Our lives are usually too full of noise, so this is the ideal moment of the day to experience real silence. Corinthians 12:9-10 but he said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for power is made perfect in weakness. My only complaint is -- and it's why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 -- that the paperback is soon losing its morning-prayer pages since I refer to them everyday, so I wonder if the hardback wouldn't be a better choice.For this reason it is short, and can be prayed in the time it takes to boil a kettle, especially if committed to memory. The Daily Office – Morning, Midday and Evening Prayer – is at the core of the life of the Northumbria Community. A short set of liturgy with picturesque language ("Christ as a light, Christ as a shield" for example)followed by readings designated for each day of the year, both from Scripture and poems or thoughts from medieval religious figures (such as Aidan or Cuthbert or the like), then a time of intercessions that are open to your own materials or impromptu prayer, closing with blessings. This is a rich treasury that is loved and trusted by individuals, ministers, families, groups and communities across the world. Some find that the mornings tend to be too rushed for lengthy silences and that this can best wait till evening prayer.
