Prayer is Grace
We cannot force God into a relationship. God comes to us on his own initiative, and no discipline, effort, or ascetic practice can make him come. All mystics stress with an impressive unanimity that prayer is “grace”— that is, a free gift from God, to which we can only respond with gratitude. But they hasten to add that this precious gift indeed is within our reach. In Jesus Christ, God has entered into our lives in the most intimate way, so that we could enter into his life through the Spirit.

ICONS
By Maidie Weisbarth
This icon of the Good Shepherd was written
(painted) for the St. Francis Chapel with traditional egg
Tempera and gesso on wooden Panel with gold gilding.
The Good Shepherd
The image of our lord as Good Shepherd is first found in the early Church catacombs and is referenced in the old and new Testament: ie. “I am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd Lays down his life for the Sheep. John 10:11
The letters on Christ’s halo are Greek for
“I am who is”. This is in itself a profound meditation on the nature of Christ!
The letters in the upper corner are Greek abbreviations for Jesus Christ. These letters will always be found in icons of Christ so that Christ is clearly identified.
To write these inscriptions of the icon is the final touch of making the icon and is a prayer acknowledging the Holy Spirit who is being activated by our participation in this sacred art and opening us to his Presence within ourselves.
THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD;
I SHALL NOT WANT.
HE MAKES ME LIE DOWN IN GREEN PASTURES.
HE LEADS ME BESIDE STILL WATERS.
HE RESTORES MY SOUL.
HE LEADS ME IN PATHS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS
FOR HIS NAME’S SAKE.
Psalm 23:1-3

The word faith is often understood as accepting something you can’t understand. People often say: “Such and such can’t be explained, you simply have to believe it.” However, when Jesus talks about faith, he means first of all to trust unreservedly that you are loved, so that you can abandon every false way of obtaining love.
The Greek word for faith is pistis, which means, literally, “trust.”
