Excerpt
Our every motion every moment testifies, For it proves the presence of the Everlasting God. So the revolution of the millstone, so violent, Testifies to the existence of a stream of water.

✨ To meditate on today
According to Rumi, just as the turning millstone proves that a stream of water is moving it, each of our movements testifies to the presence of God who gives us life. Today, at a few chosen moments — while walking, breathing, reaching out your hand —, notice that you are in motion and say inwardly: “It is Your life that moves me forward.”
