This Day: Visit us each day for a contemplative experience – an image, a Scripture reading, a quotation from Fruit of the Vine, a query, and a poem-prayer. On Saturday each week, we will feature an excerpted Quaker testimony. On Sunday each week, we will offer a Scripture reading, historic Quaker quotation, questions for consideration, and a personal essay from the Illuminate lesson for that week.

Scripture: 2 Chronicles 16:9

“When God can rest in our love, as we rest in his love, then our relationship grows stronger and deeper. We become more like God and still have the freedom to be ourselves.” –Teresa Reynolds, Fruit of the Vine

Query: Do you trust God to be faithful to care for you, to love you, and to provide for your every need?


Finding peace

demands losing selfishness,

no more striving.

Instead of struggling

for control,

get quiet; seek

the Eternal Light—

our Source.

All else is dust.

–Jim Teeters, from “16” in Because of This
