Holy Spirit,breathe upon the cosmos.May it share in Christ's resurrectionand grow with the birth pangs of his kingdom.May we, even in the middleof its groanings and agony,be instruments of its healingand breathe peace upon it this day. In the prayers collected in this book, Ray Simpson asks us to "hear the cry of the earth and work together to 'choose life'" (Deuteronomy 30:19). He reminds us that Divine life courses through Earth's rivers, breathes through her winds, and sings in each life form she nourishes, and he invites us to celebrate Earth's beauty as we learn from her deep wisdom. At the same time, with a prophet's clear voice, he calls to us to repent of our selfishness and ignorance, and commit ourselves to the Earth's healing and restoration. "Come!" he says. "Celebrate! Learn! Repent! Take hands and work together! Join in Creation's dance with all your strength and soul!" May every soul join with the song Nature sings.May the birds sing,may the trees clap,and may we humans taste and dance.
Autorenporträt
Ray Simpson was educated at Woking Grammar School for Boys, London University and London College of Divinity. He was ordained into 'the one, holy, catholic and apostolic church' at Lichfield Cathedral, founded by Saint Chad of Lindisfarne in 669. In 1978, he was uniquely commissioned by Anglican, Baptist, Catholic, Methodist, United Reformed Churches and The Religious Society of Friends, with a Salvation Army band and 'the right hand of fellowship' from Community and Pentecostal churches to establish 'one family of Christians for one neighbourhood' at Bowthorpe, Norwich, in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. He is the Founding Guardian of the dispersed International Ecumenical Community of Aidan and Hilda. The CORE of CAH comprises followers of the way from Catholic, Orthodox, Reformed and Emerging expressions of the worldwide Body of Christ and other faith communities. He lived on England's Holy Island of Lindisfarne for over two decades where he established the Celtic Christian Library and the Community's retreat accommodation for pilgrims. He has been the Community's principal liturgist and Celtic Studies tutor, is the author of over forty books on prayer, spirituality and new monasticism and has travelled and lectured widely on three continents. His popular auto-biography, Monk In the Marketplace, was published in 2021. For information about his daily prayer tweet, weekly blog, downloads and books, see: www.raysimpson.org.
