Three readings. A song that says the rest. And inspiration for whatever this day is here to teach.
Read — the readings that opened the day
Alan Cohen
“The word spiritual implies spirit & aliveness. If we are not bringing vitality and joy to our spiritual path, we are missing its essence. Fear shuts down life; joy opens it. We ask the Higher Power to help us move with the energy; things go better when we let life flow, to allow life to come alive with joy and celebration. Today, a deep trust in my Higher Power is rewarded with continual miracles.”

Trust in Divine Providence: True joy comes from knowing that everything in your life is part of a purposeful, loving system rather than random chaos. Viewing life's challenges as mistakes or rejecting your circumstances blocks this flow. Kabbalah teaches that joy is an inner quality of the soul, linked to Tiferet (in Hebrew: תִּפְאֶרֶת), translated as beauty, harmony, and balance, which acts as the bridge between giving and receiving. Developing a grwoing trust in God continues to build the bridge.”
Meditation for the Day “You are God's servant. Serve Him cheerfully and readily. Nobody likes a servant who avoids extra work, who complains about being called from one task to do one less enjoyable. A master would feel ill served by such a servant. But is that not how you so often serve God? View your day's work in this light. Try to do your day's work the way you believe God wants you to do it, never shirking any responsibility and often going out of your way to be of service. Prayer for the Day Today, I pray that I may be a good servant. I pray that I may be willing to go out of my way to be of service.”
