 Prayer to Shekinah

‘Oh Shekinah,

Divine Feminine Presence, Soul of God, Divine Mate of En

Sof, Grant me your graceful presence.

I praise your willingness and bravery to withdraw from the One

so that we might be created.

I give thanks to you for being Here with us Now and Always,
until that day comes when we all reunite with the Creator.

Thank you for your selfless service to us, your children, and to
the Creator, in coming down into this world so that all might
come to be.

And, Thank you for molding and shaping me into the vessel that
I am, so that God's Light may find unique expression in and
through me.

3
Help me to have the Faith that, even though I may feel separate
and alone at times, God's Light is ever present, God's Love is
endlessly given, and is always Forgiving and Accepting,

Grant me the insight to know that, through the blessing of your

presence, reunion with God is near at hand, in any moment in the
Here and Now.
Bless me with the patience and discipline to sit in stillness and
silent waiting.

Grace me with your peaceful quiet.

Teach me to Understand and harness the cycles of Nature and

of Time.

Show me how to create and hold the space, within which the
Miracles of the One Thing may manifest by the mediation of the
One Mind through me.

Be with me as I conceive a new self within and give birth to my

life in the world.

Help me to appreciate the labor that is required to bring forth

such wondrous creations.

Shape me into an apt vessel that I may be filled with your

presence and so that the Light of Creator will flow through me.

Help me to master my own soul so that the Spirit of God may

come down and unite with you, His Divine Mistress.

Oh, that I may serve as a bridge for your union with the
Creator.

Help me to revere the silence and to quiet my mind, so that I may

hear the whispers of Love and Passion between you and the
beloved Creator.

Share with me your longing, your burning desire for union with
Him.

4
Let this union take place in my own heart to repair the fragments
of my soul and make me whole once more.

Fill me with your Beauty and Grace, your Silence and Peace,
your Strength and Courage, your Understanding and
Acceptance, your Openness and Receptivity.

Bless me with your ability to hold the light and give it expression
in the world of form.

Purify the dross of my being, so that the Flame of the One may
move upon the waters of my Quiet Pond and transform me into
the Stone of the Wise.

Amen, Amen, Amen
