In this silence I do not call to You, my God. I do not call out at all | |
Instead, for an instant of openness I offer, not demand I surrender, just for a moment | |
Instead of asking for my needs or of challenging You, our usual way I am quiet and available to You | |
You, You, You I am here I am open |

Support this work:
The Open Siddur Project is a volunteer-driven, non-profit, non-denominational, non-prescriptive, gratis & libre Open Access archive of contemplative praxes, liturgical readings, and Jewish prayer literature (historic and contemporary, familiar and obscure) composed in every era, region, and language Jews have ever prayed. Our goal is to provide a platform for sharing open-source resources, tools, and content for individuals and communities crafting their own prayerbook (siddur). Through this we hope to empower personal autonomy, preserve customs, and foster creativity in religious culture. If you like what you've found here, please help keep our project alive and online with your financial contribution.
ויהי נעם אדני אלהינו עלינו ומעשה ידינו כוננה עלינו ומעשה ידינו כוננהו "May the pleasantness of אדֹני our elo’ah be upon us; may our handiwork be established for us — our handiwork, may it be established." –Psalms 90:17
![אתה Synagogue tile decorated with Moorish motif and inscribed with the Hebrew word אתה "atah" (you), Morocco, 18th century. Blue and white ceramic tile with Moorish arch and floral motif; Original record notes that this tile came from a Moroccan synagogue. Possibly from "baruch atah bevo'echa uvaruch ata btzetecha" (ברוך אתה בבואך וברוך אתה בצאתך), Deuteronomy 28:6; cf. tiled inscriptions in Lazama synagogue, Marrakech. This tile is most likely from one of the four imperial cities: Fez, Meknes, Marrakesh, or Rabat. (From the Magnes Museum collection, Tile [77-275].)](https://opensiddur.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/4715290282_39071aaeb8_o.jpg)
