calling in our devotion to growth

creations blooming open

Thank you for this abundant season -- for the creative pulse that ripens and prepares the harvest that fills our hands.  Hold us as we carry it forth with ease and effort.  Keep us in the cycle of giving and receiving so that we are fulfilled and not depleted in the process.

When it’s easy to push beyond our capacity, remind us to listen to the story the earth is telling us.   May we feel the story our body is telling us too.  When we feel like we can't keep up with the pace, expand our breath through the pressure that grips between our chest and belly so we can clear our channels.  

Show us glimpses of our purpose along the way when we feel weary in our efforts.  Guide us to continue growing upward towards the light on each trellis, finding the supports we need.

Working together, like the multitude of flowers blooming in a runway for the pollinators, teach us how to collaborate and resource with each other, to dream, and to get our hands dirty together.  Help us to notice the fruit, flowers, and medicine that nourish us and the many winged creatures at work.

If we forget to pause and celebrate, show us how to honor abundance in the most simple ways.  Move our hands to harvest the mint, basil, and lemon balm to balance the fire. Take us to the flowers that stay open for awhile, and to the blooms that begin to let go of the petals after what seems like a fleeting glimpse in their fullest moment.  Remind us to pause in awe of all of this...
