No One Knows Your name
WARRIOR Thu 06 May 2010, 11:51 am
Clothed in wimple and habit
Silence is your vow
In rows you gather
Chant after the bell rings.
Daily you do so unnoticed.
Prayer is your vocation
For a dying world
Requests for sick loved ones,
For the sake of loving people.
Your knees are worn
From hours of kneeling
Prostrate yourself so
Your heart has been pierced
You heard the call
And accepted.
Sister you have become
You have a sense of community.
Always on the altar
The book remains open.
Living and dying is one
You are a vessel.
You stand in the gap
And pray for a dying world.
And no one knows your name.

Jeanne Guyon (1648-1717) wrote powerfully about the need for an intimate relationship with Almighty God, including this: “He who has a pure heart will never cease to pray; and he who will be constant in prayer, shall know what it is to have a pure heart.”
