Are You Anchored to the Holy One? So much from our society distracts our minds and hearts from being fixed on what is true. Anchors for the Soul by bestselling and award-winning author, Joyce Rupp, allows you to reserve some time each day—with prayers, poems, meditations, and blessings—to re-anchor yourself interiorly to find inspiration and insight to steady your spiritual sailboat. The treasury of excerpts gathered in Anchors for the Soul comes from a variety of Rupp’s publications to help you find God throughout the year. A Few Examples of the Prayers Contained in the Book A Mediation for the New Year Guardian of this new year, I set aside my fears, worries, concerns. I open my life to mystery, to beauty, to hospitality, to questions, to the endless opportunity of discovering you in my relationships, and to all the silent wisps of wonder that will draw me to your heart. Bringing a Blessing Teacher and Healer, you brought the gift of yourself to those who benefited from your work. You touched them with wellsprings of love. Remind me each day to do the same.
