In the Garden…
I watch with him in the garden
my heart ever awake through his breathing,
awash with tears from his eyes
suspended in the gaze of surrendering love,
kneeling in its truth and feeling how real
is the agonizing passion that grips his heart.
One in being with the Spirit that gives us Life,
there is no separation, no place to hide,
beneath this sacred sun, there is only One.
I cannot run, for I have no feet but his.
Not my will, no will but thine, O Lord, I whisper
through his lips, for I have no words but his.
What I behold through his eyes,
I could not bear alone, so I must face
the thundering sound of God,
the blinding flash of lightning and
the shaking of the earth upon which he kneels.
I taste the blood of his wounds and weep with him.
Rising from the darkened tomb of night,
I feel the wind of Spirit lifting him, taking me along,
share his gift of flight into a brilliant light.
I sing the song he sings, breathe the breath
of God that renews and clasps him as his own
secure in the glow of Love that will never let us go.

Swans in the gliding path of infinity

We can fall into the rabbit hole
of wonderland
A flaring of light through a lens, the meaning of which can only be perceived as an illumination through the heart…
When we truly look with love..
life becomes known
as a sacred gift..
through the generosity
of grace.
We begin to “behold”
and see a glowing of light.
We feel the energy
of “belovedness”.
We share in the touch
of an unseen Hand..
a Presence
manifesting and
blessing the visions.
Words spring into being.
Images reflect
and reveal
a deeper glory.
A communion of spirit
opens a hidden flow
from heart to heart..
soul to soul..
and a portal is opened
between heaven and earth..
both human and divine.
We enter into a covenant
relationship
unconditional..indestructible..
sealed and sheltered
and given
by God alone.

I so love the way I feel the nearness of God in all the ways Love creates all form and beauty here on earth, intimately sharing in countless ways, but when I was guided to open to Spirit and the great Mystery of the inexpressible, the Light and flow of divine energy, of that invisible essence of living Presence, the unlimited, unconditional, gloriously creative, ever-expanding Nature of Divine Spirit, I fell into Wonder and Awe in a way that changed my life completely… into Faith and Trust and surrendering Love beyond my human limitations, beyond imagining. We are cradled in Brilliance, in Generosity, in Genius, in Divine relationship with God, forever preparing the way for us, never leaving us, forever creating, forever loving us. Spirit is indestructible, beyond human manipulation, this is Divine Promise….the ultimate Joy…the pinnacle of Life itself…
The Divine Domain…is hidden….protected….concealed……in the cloud of unknowing,
the indestructible, the great unknown, spacelessness, placelessness,
beyond name, deep in the uncreated possibilities
known to the Spirit of God Alone.
Love is the Fire that burns but does not destroy….
the Flame that Lights our way forever….
The Breath that kindles, activates,
and nurtures
All Life
An opening portal of perception
Sweet Silence, sacred song of my soul,
awakening in the mystical garden of God,
a Beloved with infinite names and forms,
a beauty rising beyond our words!
We build temples, churches, cathedrals,
shrines, and mosques, sing hymns,
ring bells, worship, kneel and pray
to express our hope to live our faith!
In countless ways, we bow in gratitude
for the gift and blessing of life itself!
The universe bends low and kneels,
touching the mountain tops and the earth,
warming us with the sun, sending
a cooling rain and caressing breeze.
We are called to love God and our neighbor,
for deep within, we are a kingdom
and a cosmic womb, called to care
for this holy place, and to live in peace!
Listen to the sweet song of Silence
within your soul! Let the Spirit guide each
and every life, that Love might reign
on this earthly paradise, as it is in heaven.
