Winterfeast For the Soul Day One

eyes open to the light of prayer
heart open to the truth of soul
mind open to the possibilities

From the website winterfeastforthesoul.com:

DAY ONE

Be silent,
Still,
Aware.
For there
In your own heart,
The Spirit is at prayer,
Listen and learn,
Open and find
Heart wisdom.

Winterfeast for the Soul offers in Inspiritual Quotes for the first 10 days in their Jan 12 online newsletter as well as links to online guided meditations.

As I participate in this 40 day spiritual communion, I am including chanting, prayer, meditation and reading from from spiritually oriented texts. Along with the offerings from the winterfeast site, I am reading from The Bridge of Stars: 365 prayers, blessings and meditations from around the world edited by Marcus Braybrooke.

The first poem in this book is by Rumi:

"Today, like every other day, we wake up empty and scared.
Don't open the door to the study and begin reading;
Take down the dulcimer.

Let the beauty we love be what we do.
There are hundreds of ways to kneel and kiss the ground."

May you enjoy the music of the soul
