Prayer to Be of Benefit

May I be willing to listen,
To trust the wholeness,
To see the sacred,
To know that we belong to each other,
To dive into the depths
Where nothing is excluded.

May I remember our natural 
inclination to shine,
To be available to the clarity of love,
To scoop each precious being
Into my heart,
To dance with possibility,
To walk in peace.

May my stillness welcome the turbulent,
My silence hear the cries of the heart,
My courage free the hesitant ones,
My joy brighten the way for those 
Who think they are lost,
And my love sing the song that we are.
