Notre Dame


Notre Dame is awe inspiring.  Jim and I both agreed that we'd like to go back individually and spend some time in thought and prayer.
We lit another candle and it felt right to take a picture, so often it doesn't.  Jonah and I have lit a candle and prayed for Maren at many cathedrals we have visited this summer.  It is always precious to see his excitement over this and hear his prayer.  The candles are always so beautiful and they do draw you to prayer and make you take a breath and re-member a bit more of our humanness. 

I have a thought to make a space for lighting candles (probably the little battery ones so Jonah can do it himself) in our home to draw us to prayer.  I'll have to think about how this would work.
