A prayer to kindle the things that give us hope.

This prayer was inspired by a card I recently pulled from my Brighid Oracle deck, as well as personal musings about what might be missing in the world. While the simple and vibrant joys of our youth can’t solve all of the world’s issues, I think the world is sorely missing them to its detriment.
Prayer for an Abundant Heart
O Brighid,
pierce the hearts of those who long for the whimsies of youth
and release what was shuttered away in them with Your fiery arrow.
Let the flames illuminate the falsehoods that smothered their inner flames.
May those flames flow uninhibited
into their spirits,
their minds,
and their bodies.
May You strike true
to bring forth peace,
to spark imaginations,
to birth art in its fullness,
so that hearts are sated and abundant.
By Sky,
By Land,
By Sea.
