These are prayers that celebrate not only sacred time in timeless eternity, but sacred community in blessed aloneness. The great holy days, special feasts, and sacred occasions are blended with traditional blessings, litanies, and other prayers reflecting various life condi- tions. This is a book that demonstrates not so much a faith of belief but a faith of wonder. It is an experience of openness to the enlighten- ment of the "light invisible," the mysterion of liturgical prayer. To live in memory of Him is to experience Eucharistia, a thanksgiving for life, for being alive in, through, and with Christ. For, as Dag Hammar- skjöld has said, "God does not die on the day when we cease to believe in a personal deity, but we die on the day our lives cease to be il- lumined by a wonder beyond all reason." 242.8 Cum p0824500717 Transformatio Library Bandung Theological Seminary 242.8 Cum p E07001807 Non Fiction 242.8 Cum p f658ad73-3591-434a-bf6a-6a6d6021ba9f.jpg 28989 2014-11-13 15:11:01 2024-12-06 13:39:57 machine generated
