A prayer for a chiful class

— It wrote itself inside the rhythm of Rocking Motion one early morning as I was awakening. —

Oh divine spirit, drench us with your presence

Open our bodies, our hearts,
our minds, and our souls
to the infinite love that surrounds us,
pulses through us with each breath, and
is within every cell of our being.

Give consideration to our deepest yearnings,
sustain us in our sufferings, and
entreat us to enter fully into our wholeness with you.

Here we are in all our uniqueness,
in all our potential, in all our sameness,
in all our confusion.

Help us empty of expectations and of regrets,
empty of wisdom and of doubts,
empty and release, empty and let go.

Empty, and allow your ever-present loving energy
to flow through us and fill us.

Bring forth from within ourselves the knowledge that
within each breath, within each moment,
within each relationship, you are there,
and in all our potential, we are one.
