In the unity

In the unity

The clanging noise of our everyday world,
the outer rush compelled by inner fears and need,
hidden below the shallow awareness’s of life’s real depth,
the fruit being the places we create for those around us,
good and bad,
love and hate,
beautiful and ugly,
those worthy and unworthy of our love or attention,
our self destructive tendencies
both individual and cultural that drives us mad,
all this hellish sound of fury
slowly ceases little by little in communion with God.

Boundaries are of little help when standing before the divine
allowing the fire of truth to scour away all that is false,
ignorant,
and yes sinful,
to bring to the fore our essential unity,
we are one,
slowly love reveals itself,
allowing humility to arise and self knowledge to flourish,
learning that before God all are cherished,
our petty pigeon holes shown for what they are
something of little importance.

In the unity only love exists,
on the cross,
nailed,
scourged,
crowed in mockery,abandoned by his beloved followers,
he forgave all,

“Father forgive them for they know not what they do”,

so true,
we don’t know what we do,
not knowing our right from our left,
stumbling,
pursued,
loved.

In prayer we become Christ,
all sentient beings reside in our hearts,
for as true life grows,
our love envelops the universe,
such is the power of the love bestowed on us,
for the reward of love,
is love,
its capacity to grow forever
never reaching the infinite compassion of the Father,
such is our joy
if only we would embrace it,
our little hells would crumble like the sand castles they are.
