My new friend in the Maker's Space* has prayed for the Muslim world during Ramadan. Gillian wrote this as she prayed. Used with permission.
The fasting hunger -
Like empty spaces
Between ladder rungs;
You cannot place feet
Where there is nothing.
See the Son of Man:
Fullness of God and
Fullness of mankind,
Flesh of your own flesh;
Who knows your hunger
But fills all in all;
Who opened wide the
Heavens and now stands,
Stands high your Ladder.
On him the angels
Ascend and descend.
On him and in him
You are invited
To heaven’s fullness.
Let him take your feet
And carry you high.
(April 2023)
*The Makers Space is a private FB group that is growing out of what was an artist group meeting to practice creativity with activating prayer. There is now a small Novo Mission team from that original group for whom this is no longer our "side-hustle" ministry, but the main focus of what we do full time. Where we have our boots on the ground, and serving other mission teams in need of some creative juice. If you are interested in perhaps joining our Makers FB group which meets by zoom on the 3rd Thursday of the month, contact me!
