acts 4:1

8-12-07

♥

where are you in the status quo?

what authority do you claim?

and why are you clinging so tightly?

.

where are you afraid to confront injustice?

what makes it so hard to stand firm?

and where will you simply not keep quiet anymore?

.

blessings as you consider your experience

...the places where your loneliness ceased,

...where you actually felt love,

...where grace was shown,

or grace was freely given.

.

open your eyes and see

open your hands and feel

open your ears and hear

open your mouth and taste

.

wake up.

wipe the grogginess away.

feel yourself flooded with light-

your vision finally wide enough to actually see.

begin to sense the reality of something that was possibly

always there-always tangible-but felt for the first time.

listen for the voice of love,

and draw in a breath that fills your lungs so fully...

experience the sweetness of experience the sweetness, the delight, the extravagance of the divine.

draw in a breath that fills your lungs so fully.

.

if you would but seek,
and allow yourself to be found.

amen.
