May we trust

in the purity

of love.

And may we be

tucked safely within

our deepest hearts.

Amen.

When the world begins

to feel like too much again,

when we can’t sort

all of the pieces

of our own hearts,

I will whisper a quiet prayer

and dream.

When there are no words

for what is in our hearts,

when there are more questions

than answers,

may we always find

more faith than doubt,

courage to stand,

and strength

to continue on.

Amen.

May we meet each other

in the quiet spaces

within our hearts.

And may we find courage

to listen

and to speak

from this place.

Amen.

When there are no more words,

when we have reached

the place beyond speaking

and listening,

may we find peace

in all that remains

unspoken

in the depths of our hearts.

Amen.

When the world around us

feels like too much,

when we lose our way

and forget the sound

of our own voices,

may we find

just enough courage

to listen

to the quiet whispers

of Love.

Amen.

There is a reaching,

a love,

that clings only

to itself,

a sacred kind of holding —

effortless —

like the words that come

out of wordless prayers —

like lighthouses

standing still,

yet reaching —

sinking down a little deeper

into the calm,

standing still

and reaching —

ever so subtly.

Let us reach

from this place.

I hold what is here.

I hold without needing

to alter my reaction

with force.

I hold.

And I trust —

holding the pure emotion

underneath the stories —

honoring

and holding space

with an ever-deepening love

and gentle reconnection

with this life.

Amen.

I stand still

in honor of

all that needs

a little more holding.

And from this stillness,

from a state of prayer,

I offer this love

as others have done

for me.

Amen.
