  • The cupped hand of a white person pours water on a seedling planted in muddy ground.
    May we know that love can heal us, all of us, if we act with compassion, if we offer grace.

  • A rough-hewn bronze statue of a man embracing a child who is just a little shorter than he is. In the background, blurry, are some tree branches, a signboard, and a building. The statue is Charlie Mackesy’s “Return of the Prodigal Son,” found outside Holy Trinity Brompton Anglican Church.
    Addiction thrives in isolation and shame—two things that are deeply opposed to the message of Jesus.… The Parable of the Prodigal Child and addiction share profound themes of isolation, shame, and the redemptive power of love and community.

  • On a set of stairs outdoors, two women sit talking. They're holding hands, as if comforting one another.
    It seems to me that right now, we all need a little extra grace.

  • A close-up of a piece of lapis lazuli. Most of the image is the deep blue of the stone, but there is a large irregularly-shaped area of white on the left side of the photo. Throughout, the stone contains cracks as well as flecks of gold-colored pyrite.
    Some years are hard. Some holidays won’t feel jolly. Some days are best kept In quiet contemplation. But none of that makes this time less holy. None of that makes you less worthy…

  • A drawing, on a textured greenish grey surface using a thick white pen or brush, of a very simplified outline of a human head in profile, with many curved and twisting arrows pointing outwards from the head.
    Blessed are the unfocused, for they notice the sparks of divinity that illuminate the world.…

  • A group of five or six flowers drawn or painted against a black background. The flowers are realistic except for their colors. Each has five petals. The central flower has yellow, green, and purple petals, red in the center. The second most prominent flower has green petals, with red in the center.
    Blessings shall follow us all the days of our lives if we live in and return to right relationships, if we extend grace and forgiveness to ourselves and others, if we behold mercy as a spiritual superpower.

  • A young orange, brown, and white tabby cat lies on a bed with its eyes closed. The cat is on a light brown fleece blanket, and a pillow with a floral pillowcase is visible behind it. Sunlight rakes in at a low angle and illuminates part of the cat and the blanket.
    Sometimes we awake in the morning, and we’d rather go back to sleep… And then, the first sliver of sunshine may dance across our face.

  • A black-and-white photo of the full moon, close to the horizon and behind a tiny wisp of clouds, over the calm but not glassy surface of the Pacific ocean. The water reflects the moon’s light, forming a bright streak between the viewer and the moon.
    Here in the quiet, may we lift up our hearts in gratitude for the gifts of our lives, pausing in thanksgiving.

  • The front cover of Tricia Hersey’s book “Rest Is Resistance: A Manifesto”
    Resting as a form of resistance will be part of a lifelong unraveling. A mind shift, a slow and consistent practice filled with grace. We must imagine a new way, and rest is the foundation for this invention.

  • The bronze statue of Atlas that stands above the entrance of the central train station in Frankfurt. Atlas struggles to hold the Earth — with a band of figures representing the twelve astrological signs surrounding the equator — on his back and shoulders. Atlas is aided by allegorical figures representing Steam and Electricity.
    We call upon all the transcendent gifts of renewal to be bestowed upon us, for an energizing renewal to fill us in all the ways that serve our lagging spirits when our own resilience wanes.

  • A child — perhaps eight years old or so, wearing shorts and a short-sleeve shirt, and with their arms raised — is standing on a ridge, silhouetted by the sun. The sky is pale blue with scattered clouds, and the sun is low in the sky, but still above the horizon.
    May we be bold in our faith, declaring that Gone are the Days! We are Unitarian Universalists. We are the blessings we seek for this world and the Beloved Community we are building.

  • An overhead view of a few square feet of a street paved with concrete bricks, showing the yellow flower of a dandelion growing in the space between two bricks. The flower is on the right side of the photograph, and its color matches a yellow stripe painted on the pavement, which fills the left third of the photo.
    Spirit of Love, come alongside with all the holy nudges that we need, so we may live in such a way that we celebrate all the blessings that we have been given. So we may be the blessings in the world.

  • An adult’s hands gently resting on the bare feet of a child, on a clean white sheet. The adult and child have brown skin, and the adult’s nails are painted coral.
    We come into consciousness in the middle of the story...

  • A greyscale silhouette of a person extending their open hand towards the viewer. The image is highly foreshortened, with the hand looming large in the image and the person seemingly far away.
    We proclaim with Love on our side: Our bodies are sacred. Our minds are blessed. Our spirits are beloved.

  • The cover of the book "On Repentance and Repair: Making Amends in an Unpaologetic World," by Danya Ruttenberg has a beige background with grey lines like cracks in a hard surface, with the title words over this. There is also a medallion that says "National Jewish Book Awards Winner."
    The workshops explore repentance and repair in (1) interpersonal relationships, (2) communal spaces, such as our congregations, and (3) wider communities, such as nations, and systems we are part of.
