Today, we welcome 'Returning for Wisdom' as we Sankofa (SAHN-koh-fah) with open hands + contemplative hearts, going back to get what is precious, even as we step forward.
A Holy Haiku - Returning for Wisdom
Bird flies to the nest
Wisdom gathered, then returned
Flight shaped by God's love.
Amen + Asé
Reflection for Your Journey
Where do you return to find God's wisdom + nourishment? How might today's journey back to Source renew your spirit (ruach)?
Perhaps like a bird returning to its nest, you find God's wisdom in early morning silence. Create a small nest-like space—a corner with a cushion, a special chair by the window. Begin your day here, hands cupped as if holding something precious. Breathe deeply as you imagine collecting fragments of insight, then releasing them into your heart. What hidden wisdom awaits in this moment of returning?
For May's Mental Health Awareness Month, affirm: "Through empathy, I/we return to our belovedness + reclaim in the spirit of Sankofa, to go back and get it, by the enablement of the Holy Spirit”
