“The wound is the place where the Light enters you.” – Rumi
Our wounds - whether emotional, spiritual, or physical - can feel like barriers or sources of pain.
Yet, Rumi’s words invite us to see these wounds differently: as openings, sacred spaces where healing and transformation can flow in.
Every struggle carries the seed of growth.
When we lean into our pain with courage and compassion, we give the light a place to shine through the cracks.

A Prayer for Healing Light
Loving God,
In the places where I feel broken, be my healer and my light.
Help me to receive Your grace through my wounds,
and to trust that transformation comes even in pain.
May Your light soften my heart, renew my spirit,
and guide me toward wholeness in Your loving embrace.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Your wounds are not the end of your story—they are the beginning of new light.
May you find strength and peace in the sacred space of healing.
