A Petition for Loving w/prompts
Holy Mother, beloved sister
Thank you for this day, for this dawn,
For the chance to open my heart and let love move through me.
Please guide me to embody love, even in sorrow,
even in silence, even in the unknown.
Thank you for the morning sky wrapped in a foggy blanket
Thank you for the soft dew, for the morning doves cooo.
Thank you for meeting me On this new dawn,
Where I am free to choose,
help me choose love—over fear, over judgment, over doubt.
Open my arms to embrace all of who I am.
And to lovingly embrace all that I encounter
Let me look through your eyes,
seeing the sacred in every soul I meet.
When I forget, when I judge,
Let me see us all as whole, as healing, as holy.
Let me remember your truth and
Find me holding up a perfect 10 - let me see us all win and thriving
Drape our necks with your rewards
In the dark, help me feel whats hidden.
Let me love what is becoming,
even when it tears through me.
Let me birth the new with courage.
Walk with me.
Remind me, when I dim my light - I am allowed to shine
that my light is not too bright, my shine is not too shiny
that your love gave me all the permission I needed long long long ago.
Teach me to love all my gifts,
even those I’ve hidden or feared.
Teach me to honor the gifts in others
without comparing or shrinking
Thank you for the ocean of love in which I get to swim—
for this life that has me gather in circle with
the infinite faces of divine love:
Let us love in pleasure and in pain, in union and in separation,
in breaking, and in the healing that follows.
Help me trust the discomfort of the now
as part of the alchemy that births the new.
Even if the timeline is unseen, destination unknown
help me walk in faith.
Clothe me in linen and robes of red
Guard my heart—not from breaking,
but from closing.
Break it you must to let it expand,
kintsugi the cracks.
Fill my broken with your gold
Fill my mouth with words of love,
true and clear,
that others can hear and receive.
When I stumble,
let me pause, reflect, and try again.
Lead me to language that heals and holds and gives hope
Let me speak with care, with fire, and with compassion.
Let my life be an expression of love.
Let my presence become a prayer.
Let me become, as you are,
a vessel of the Sacred
And so it is.

( I suggest playing a lyric-less song - my favorite is 7:22 in length and I love that the number honors the Magdalene Feast Day. https://youtu.be/nWvgwwcIYG0?si=gXRBO-be5Sw-ooDC )
Thank you...
Let me hold...
When I forget...
Let my life be...
When I stumble...
Even if...
Teach me to...
Let my presence...
