Today we hear again from Julia Fehrenbacher.

Her mindful, spiritual poetry reminds us of the gifts that come with openhearted living.

"Hold Out Your Hand"

Poem by Julia Fehrenbacher Let’s forget the world for a while fall back and back into the hush and holy of now ​ are you listening? This breath invites you to write the first word of your new story ​ your new story begins with this: You matter. ​ You are needed—empty and naked willing to say yes and yes and yes. ​ Do you see the sun shines, day after day whether you have faith or not the sparrows continue to sing their song even when you forget to sing yours ​ stop asking: Am I good enough? Ask only: Am I showing up with love? ​ Life is not a straight line it’s a downpour of gifts, please— hold out your hand​
