“Live in peace; and the God of love
And peace shall be with you.”
2 Corinthians 13:11
bc*****************************************************
Acknowledging human tendency towards paranoid thoughts,
One has also to recognize there are times
When we just can’t see clearly whether the enemies inside or outside
Are doing the greatest damage to our soul.
…Preventing us from expansion.
Makes sense to let go of fear and doubt,
Drop them like hot potatoes
And merely concentrate on the task at hand.
The challenge becomes to relinquish our need
To engage in business and meaningless thought patterns
To disentangle the cords binding us to earthly matter
And elevate our spirits to God.
Sooner rather than later,
We quiet our minds.
Emotional turbulence subsides.
We see colors and shapes again.
Like the sky’s reflection on a tranquil lake,
Clarity's delicacy is achieved.
Merely surrender and stay still.
The lake's floor is revealed.
Break free!
Allow peace and silence
A space in your world.
His light guides you!
His Presence reveals your smile.
Be good!
Love,
Jan
