Use the questions and ideas below to guide your reflection and
conversation on this month's topic.
"Faith reflections" discussion
questions by Inez Torres Davis
1. In my office I
have a small vial of blessed oil and a rock with the word “Power” on
it sitting on my desktop computer. I use the oil for placing a small
cross on the door jamb or my forehead. The rock reminds me that the
present is the only point of power. What objects can you bring to
where you spend most of your day? What would these objects speak to
you?
2. The mystic Catherine
of Siena wrote, “Never leave the knowledge of yourself.” How do you
understand this instruction? What disciplines have helped you develop
knowledge of yourself?
3. Where, when, and how
do your deep communications with God occur? Take a moment to jot down
your answers. This list can serve as a basis for designing your sacred
space.
4. As you think about an
ideal sacred space, jot down the colors, textures, and sounds that
currently come to your mind. Then write down or sketch out what your own
sacred space would look like.
Do you have something you
