Bless and Serve

by Rev. Barbara Goodman Siegel, Ordained Ministerial Counselor

Dear Mother Shekhina,

I see you wise and loving.

I give you my unworthiness — it does not bless or serve

I give you my unlovable —it does not bless or serve

I give you my unhappiness — it does not bless or serve

I give you my stories — they do not bless or serve

I give you my mind to bless and serve

I give you my body to bless and serve

I give you my thoughts. Please purify them so that they may bless and serve

I give you my grievances — they do not bless or serve

I give you my judgments — they do not bless or serve

I give you my pain and suffering — they do not bless or serve

You let me cry upon Your bosom and enfold me in Your arms. You kiss my forehead and bless me. You let me be as no one on this earth is able to.

You delight as I dance in Your garden of roses high on the smell of their perfume which fills the air.

We look down together on this world of suffering and we throw rose petals each with a blessing of love and holiness. May they softly touch our sleeping brothers and sisters and gently awaken them from their sleep.

This is our gift, my dear Mother Shekhina and me. She shows me how to bless and serve the world as She holds my hand. I am filled with delight to be in Her presence and feel Her love so big it is beyond description.

I never want to leave Her. Tears fill my eyes as I feel I must go.

“You never leave” She says. But somehow, the mystical moment has passed and I am back in my chair.

I do know without a doubt that I can go back to the garden again because I know I have been in the garden before.

Thank you, Mother Shekhina, for that very holy instant in which I know I am your holy, innocent Child. I love you. Please send me Your angels of love, peace, and clarity to help me bless and serve through the day.

Amen
