Day 30 - Gevurah Sh’b Hod: Strength within Presence
Today is the thirtieth day of the Omer.
Gevurah Sh’b Hod: Strength within Presence
The strength and humility to meet whatever life brings with kavod (honor)
Practices and disciplines support our efforts and help guide our way.
Practice for today:
Sit for 5-10 minutes.
Notice the sensations of the breath moving in and out of your body. Feel the breath fill your chest, stomach, neck and head. Watch the breath move down your arms and legs. After a few minutes of noticing these sensations, speak these words to your heart: — Life flows from the Highest Will (Psalm 30:6)— and continue to repeat these words with each breath. When you notice your mind has wandered, call your attention back by taking a deep breath into these words: Life flows from the Highest Will.
I choose the path of faith and place my practices before me to guide the way. (Psalm 119:30)
