עֲנֵנוּ |
Aneinu, Answer us |
How can this year be made holy? Let us feel full, while living a year of emptiness. Help us find peace in the confusion. Give us the power to heal. May we only learn from peace. Grant us the courage to keep seeking. | |

Answer us, let us never stop asking. Aneinu |
After struggling with the requests in Aneinu, read during Seliḥot, I composed a list of requests and questions for this upcoming Shmitah year.

“עֲנֵנוּ | Aneinu, Answer us: a seliḥah in advance of the Shmitah year by Emmy Cohen” is shared by the living contributor(s) with a Creative Commons Public Domain Dedication 1.0 Universal license.
I am about to go on a sabbatical, and this prayer expresses perfectly what I hope to have happen during that sabbatical. Even though it’s a personal sabbatical rather than the shmita year (and will be a “time” rather than a “year”), this will be my prayer during that time. I’ve already copied it into the journal I will keep during the sabbatical. Thank you so much for sharing this very meaningful prayer!
