Steve Taylor’s been doing some cool stuff with spiritual practices in his church, inspired by people like Kenda Creasy Dean he’s not only been using practices that have long been a part of the Christian story but he’s also been creating his own. This month’s practice for his community is to sms a blessing, he’s given an example of one on his blog:

U r nt a accident
U r unique
U were creatd 4 a purpose
God loves u

Made me start thinking of some other suggestions, perhaps altering some celtic blessings in the process…

Grce of the lv of the Sky B Yrs
Grce of the lv of the strs B Yrs
Grce of the lv of the moon B Yrs
Grce of the lv of the sun B Yrs
Grce of the lv and the crwn of hvn B Yrse

or

May thre alwys b wk 5 yr hnds 2 do
May yr purse alwys hld a coin or 2
May the sun alwys shin on yr wndwpne
May a rnbow b certn 2 follw each rain
May the hnd of a frnd alwys b near u
May Gd fill yr (h) with gldnss 2 cheer u

Of course if one had issues with translating blessings or using txt abbreviations one could always check out wikipedia

Cheers Steve, you’ve got me thinking that it’s about time I put more time and effort into my “mobile theology” and “subwoofer theology” writings…
