I am connected to the Source of all being, even when I cannot feel it.
Prayers and contemplations oriented toward the Creator or Source of all — named in many traditions and beyond every name. Drawing on Gnostic imagery of the Monad and the fullness (Pleroma) from which all things flow, this category keeps the language of address open and non-doctrinal: an invitation to relationship, not a definition of God.

I turn toward you the way a plant turns without deciding to. I do not bring a map of you, only a longing for you. The old texts say you are fullness — Pleroma — nothing lacking, nothing excluded. If even a fraction of that fullness leans toward the world, then my small life is not an accident of the dark. Meet me in this turning. Not with signs I could mistake for my own wanting, but with the quiet certainty that I am known, and was known, before I thought to ask.
From you I came; toward you I lean; in you I rest. Amen.
I am connected to the Source of all being, even when I cannot feel it.
I am known more deeply than I know myself, and held more steadily than I hold on.
The light that made the world is not far from me; I can turn toward it today.
