Tavo l’fanecha t’filati, hatay oz’n’cha l’rinati
Let my prayer come before You;
incline Your ear to my song. (Psalm 88:3)
[Click (or tap) to see the entire Psalm 88 in Hebrew and English (JPS 1985).]
When I reveal myself fully through my prayer, through my song, through what I say and what I create, it can feel so scary sometimes. I feel naked and vulnerable. I am risking everything. Yet if I am really singing to God, standing before the Great Mystery, I am connecting myself to the Whole and I become a channel for the Divine flow. This is the fulfilment of my deepest yearning.
