RE: Thoughtful daily post - Actions speak louder than rituals

What a beautiful homely little church imbued with tranquillity. The stained glass windows are so quaint compared with the larger ones in cathedrals. I can see why you like going there🙏I think walking the talk is so important and is a big part of why I don't get involved in the outward practice of religion. Too many people sermonising and then doing the opposite every day but Sunday. I don't go to church myself. My God is all around me in everything I do and see and experience in life. I do, however, love going into churches and cathedrals when I am traveling the world. I find them fascinating and full of incredible energy and architectural design. I almost always light a few candles and say a prayer whenever I do visit one. One thing I love to do is to stand still and touch and caress almost the walls of old churches. It feels like in some way I am connecting with the past and the history of a beautiful sacred space and gives me pause for reflection🙏💗Thank you for another lovely Thoughtful daily post @tattoodjay

Thanks for your support

The touching the walls of a church was something I thought only I did

Have a great day

💗the walls are soulful💗

Yes I feel the same some even more do than others some give an overwhelming sense of peace

yes!!! Kindred spirits @tattoodjay 😊🙏 it completely washes over you, hey? especially the old raw stone walls inside churches. They feel cold to the touch but safe and peaceful at the same time.

Yes that’s exactly how they feel

Kindred spirits indeed

I always reflect on all the lives this place of worship has touched, the stories it has been witness to...the people who built them.
