I found healing
in my willingness
to hold
whatever is in this moment —
to allow this holding
to reach deep down
within my heart —
to follow this holding
into the space
where there is only love.
Quiet Reflections and Prayers
I found healing
in my willingness
to hold
whatever is in this moment —
to allow this holding
to reach deep down
within my heart —
to follow this holding
into the space
where there is only love.
Let me remember
the sound of my own true voice
hidden underneath
each experience
and all distractions.
Give me courage
to speak
from the quiet place
within my own heart.
Amen.
I dared to reach a little further,
to hold all that was
in need of holding
in my own heart and in the world
just a little longer,
just a little more —
just a little past
the stories on the surface —
to continue to trust
in the power of reconnecting
with the space within —
to remember
the beauty and wisdom
in the depths
of where I had once been
afraid to look.
