26 Tevet 5779 – Gather

The Mystery appears and calls:

I am with you beyond anything you have ever known or seen.
I am tucked within the crevices of your life.
I am in the broken shards.
I am in the devastation and despair.

Gather.

Gather when you feel afraid.

Gather when it seems you can’t go on.

I will come through your joined hands, I will appear in your torn hearts.  
And I will give you the strength to go forward.
I will take you out of the constricted places.
I will free you from serving what is not true.
I will call you present.
I will bring you into relationship with all of life.
You will know me as the power of freedom and transformation. –Exodus 6:6-7
