On this holy night, graced by the first night of Hanukkah and Christmas Eve, I want to offer up a prayer to Heaven of peace for all people. Regardless of your spiritual journey, may God’s loving light awaken in you your soul’s true purpose and guide you to act in accordance with your higher self. I believe every individual possesses their own unique spark of divine light and together we can can light a pathway to a more peaceful world. Though our spiritual traditions and beliefs may differ, I believe every path ultimately leads back to the same loving source. The poem, Your Moment, from our book, The Restorative Power of Spirit: Poems of Faith and Hope, is a statement about the light of God that can be found within every heart. I pray that people will find unity in faith and come together in prayer this holiday season.
Wishing you a blessed holiday!

Even though our presidential election is behind us, the country remains bitterly divided. I remain hopeful that we will be able to find common ground and forge a path of mutual respect and understanding. I believe that all life is interconnected and that we have a shared responsibility to work together towards a higher purpose. I can understand why people feel compelled to take a passionate stance, but ultimately we will need to find common ground in order to move forward. When we can think, speak, and act fom a more compassionate place, we will be better able to light a path towards a more peaceful, inclusive world.
May God’s blessings be with you,
Sheryl Brooks
