1 Community of Practice Practice the Presence of God

2 Just think you don't need a thing, you've got it all! All God's gifts are right in front of you as you wait expectantly for our Master Jesus. And not only that, but God himself is right alongside to keep you steady and on track until things are all wrapped up by Jesus. God, who got you started in this spiritual adventure, shares with us the life of his Son and our Master Jesus. He will never give up on you. Never forget that. 1 Cor 1:7-9

10 "Why do you go back and back to the woods unsatisfied, longing to express something that is there and not able to find it? This I know, I shall not find it until it comes out of my inner self, until the God quality in me is in tune with the God in it." E Carr You're blessed when you get your inside world your mind and heart put right. Then you can see God in the outside world. Matt 5:8

11 Breath Prayer Sit and be still until in the time of no rain you hear beneath the dry wind's commotion in the trees the sound of flowing water among the rocks, a stream unheard before, and you are where breathing is prayer. - Wendell Berry

12 Brother Lawrence " In to know God, we must often think of Him; and when we come to love Him, we shall then also think of Him often, for our heart will be with our treasure."

13 Brother Lawrence "The most excellent method of going to God is that of doing our common business without any view of pleasing people but purely for the love of God."

14 God is over all things under all things outside all within, but not enclosed without, but not excluded above, but not raised up below, but not depressed wholly above, presiding wholly without, embracing wholly within, filling Hildevert of Lavardin, 11th century

15 We cannot attain the presence of God. We're already totally in the presence of God. What's absent is awareness. God s presence has to become experiential for you, as opposed to intellectual. - R Rohr

16 1 John 4:7-12 God s Love and Ours 7 Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. 8 Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. 9 This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. 10 This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. 11 Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. 12 No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.

17 Communities of Practice (CoP)

18 Communities of practice are groups of people who share a concern or a passion for something they do and learn how to do it better as they interact regularly. Like a bunch of engineers working on a problem or surgeons exploring new techniques. It is much more than a relationship between a student and a master, studies of apprenticeship reveal a more complex set of social relationships through which learning takes place mostly with journeymen and more advanced apprentices.

36 While doing many things you get nothing done, but much gets done by doing the same thing all the day long. Madeleine Delbrêl

38 Be still and know that I'm with you Be still and know that I am here Be still and know that I'm with you Be still, be still, and know When darkness comes upon you And covers you with fear and shame Be still and know that I'm with you And I will say your name

39 If terror falls upon your bed And sleep no longer comes Remember all the words I said Be still, be still, and know And when you go through the valley And the shadow comes down from the hill If morning never comes to be

40 If you forget the way to go And lose where you came from If no one is standing beside you Be still and know I am Be still and know that I'm with you Be still and know I am

41 Dag vir dag is daar net drie goed wat ek vra net drie goed wat ek verwag om U beter te kan sien dat ek U dieper sal kan liefhê om U van nader te kan volg sodat die stof van U roete val op my voete en ek weer mens word Dag vir dag Day by day, Oh Dear Lord Three things I pray To see thee more clearly Love thee more dearly Follow thee more nearly Day by day, Amen
