Excerpt
Oh Thou whose Memory quickens Lovers' Souls, Whose Fount of Joy renews the Lover's Tongue, Thy Shadow falls across the World, and they Bow down to it; and of the Rich in Beauty Thou art the Riches that make Lovers mad.

✨ To meditate on today
According to Jami, a Persian poet, God is the One whose remembrance revives the souls of those who love: His shadow falls across the world, and all beauty is but a reflection of His riches. Today, each time something beautiful touches you, a face, a piece of music, a landscape, turn it into a remembrance of God by whispering His name.
