While on the Isle of Iona this fall, I purchased a book of daily devotions for Advent. It's titled "Gobsmacked". Today's devotion includes:
Psalm 25:4. "Make me to know your ways, O Lord; teach me your paths."
The plan on this trip is to walk a labyrinth every day. Saturday, on the way to Valle Vidal, we stopped just north of Questa. A woman who has a herb shop also has a labyrinth. Built by herself and friends, it is found by looking for the prayer flag.
The stones and rocks used to create this labyrinth were worth the walk alone. All exquisite. At the center I noticed a nice piece of petrified wood. It reminded me of my dad, who had an enormous piece of petrified wood. As kids, my sister and brother and I loved to move it around and then sit on it.
I was also reminded of my brother who recently gifted me with a beautiful piece of petrified wood.
My walk out of the labyrinth was filled with prayers for both.



Don't we wonder where that beautiful piece of petrified wood ended up? So sweet to hear you've thought of me and offered a prayer. And to be thinking of our dad with prayers for him as well. Wonderful quiet times you're experiencing.
