Beautiful, and so true! I think about our family practice, when I was growing up, of learning (memorizing) Psalms, and saying them together as a family at the breakfast table. I still know them, and fall back on them in times of difficulty or sadness, in particular, but in joyous times as well. Thanks, as always!
I'm Lutheran. I miss liturgy so much. That ritual is so grounding. We practice rituals in our daily life. How we get ready for school in the morning and say goodbye, how we eat dinner as a family, our bedtime routines. Ritual is a daily practice in our life, life. We should be practicing what ritual looks like in the Church setting.
And I can totally sing you the Magnificant - thanks to singing every Wednesday during Advent at church. After our soup supper of course. (This might also explain why I love soup and bread so much!)
