"this couldn't be..." "I can't be really this..." ah a laugh rises from my heart to my throat it seems the funniest thing that I would doubt God that I fear I am anything but this and compassion rises for all of us as we doubt this not knowing we can surrender all that we are and all that we carry sorrow, rage, fear, disappointment, love, stillness they are all welcome here to this holy moment of now we are welcome now our freedom awaits how often I still turn away from myself saying "not this" "this isn't stillness" "this isn't the spiritual perfection" "I must avoid whatever is currently unacceptable at all costs" thank you that through my longing for you you keep me pulled ever deeper ever quicker ever stiller into the cross of here and now where all must be laid upon the the altar all to be released even this and then I fall back into you perfect perfect perfect grace not even a trace of ashes remain just living presence clear clear clear grace josie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
