Openness to Love
Please sit or recline comfortably. Cross your arms over your chest and take two deep breaths. Notice the rising and falling of your chest and stomach. Now, breathe normally. If you feel comfortable, close your eyes.
May you know that receiving love requires concentration, focus, and strength because the power of the gift grows steadily. May you be aware that the love you receive is a gift of aliveness. Light seeks ways to outshine the darkness of suffering, so let it pass through you and bless the next sojourner you meet. Like a telescope, allow your light to see the desires of many beyond your orbit. Commit to shining your compassion on others as they try to overcome the devastation of anxiety. Enlighten the world with the love you see and feel, so that others who have closed their eyes to goodness can open them again without fear.
We rest in these thoughts and offer this awareness in meditation and prayers in the name of all that is Love.
May it be so
