My Foraging Prayer

 

My Foraging Prayer

 

Lord, open my eyes to behold wonderful things from Your world this day.  Psalm 119:18

Unlock just one more of Your secrets in hidden places for me.  Isaiah 45:3

Show me something that I can safely eat and prepare for my well being and for those        I love.  Psalm 145:15,16

Teach me to be a wise woman who is in tune with your creations cycles and the movement of Your Spirit.  Ecclesiastes 3:1,11

Fill me with awe of Your magnificence, Your creativity and Your goodness from the shy violets on the forest floor to the stars that You breathed into existence and call by name. Isaiah 40:25-28

May I never worship the creation but rather the Creator and Sustainer of all.            Romans 1:20-24

Enlighten my mind with timeless truths that Your creation patiently proclaims to any who will be still long enough to listen. Colossians 1:17

Bring my senses back from slumber to be fully awakened to each smell, texture, taste, nuance of shape and color and even the faintest stirrings of life.  Psalm 46:10

Restore to me my heritage from generations of my forebearers who walked Your earth knowledgeable of Your bounty and who reveled intimately in Your presence. Psalm 145:5

May every forage into the ‘green’ draw my heart closer to Yours. Psalm 105:3

About Wild Blessings

Welcome to my website. My name is Holly Drake and I love to study, teach, and talk about wild foods. I live in the beautiful Appalachian Mountains of North Carolina with my husband Jason and my dog Max where I explore the beauty of God’s creation to learn as much as I can about wild foods that are available to us for free.
