The Buddha in our Zen garden,
an offering of a plum from Bella's tree

I have come to drag you out of yourself, and take you in my heart. I have come to bring out the beauty you never knew you had and lift you like a prayer to the sky

Namaste.  May you know peace today.

Dear God,
For H ~ please bring her baby in good time, bring healing to her body and spirit and see her safely through her child's birth.  Let her know she is whole and perfect in every way.

For C ~ please release her laugh.  Let her feel the joy in her heart.

For S~ comfort her pain and her exhaustion, heal her body so her hands might do your work.  Let her feel the love that surrounds her.

For K~ give her answers that will help her move forward in her life.  Soothe her pain, reveal the meaning behind her suffering.

For H~ bring her baby safely into her arms, help her carry her heavy burden lightly until her child's birth, may her birth be healthy and wondrous.

And for me ~ help me understand suffering.  Help me comfort my sisters.

Thank you God.
