way way deep down

In the beginning God created
the heavens and the earth.
Gen 1:1

In the beginning was the Word,
and the Word was with God,
and the Word was God. He was
with God in the beginning.
Through him all things were made;
without him nothing was made
that has been made. John 1:1-3

so whether you believe any of
this or not, you are here in
the middle of 100 billion galaxies
and 100 billion suns with all the
stars in the sky knowing you exist,
hoping that it matters, wanting it
to count, and perhaps wondering
” how many seas must a white dove
sail before she sleeps in the sand “,
as you are reaching for the sky and
grabbing at the wind believing the
answer therein lies
at whatever level that may be.
ah, the wind, the invisible, the Spirit
or spirits, and you.

all aboard the choo choo train of  ” i think
i can ” know in the depth of your consciousness,
in the way way deep down of it all,
you need help from a Friend because
you were made that way. you seek and you wait.

let’s go.

My Fleeting Life

FEATHER IN THE WIND blue-feather

if i could only touch
the hem of your garment
you would make me to stand
on the end of your earth
at death’s door
knowing everything i need to know
in this moment of my fleeting life.
i feel like a feather in the whirlwind,
yet not lost, but not knowing the way.
surrounded by fog in the darkness,
i listen, listen, listen for your voice
to speak to my soul.
i am pushing through the throngs
within myself and racing toward
the place of sanctified healing
where i will caress the beauty and blessing
of bowing my face to thy feet,
of being still gently, surrounded
by the rainbow of your promise
and of knowing perfect peace
for Thou alone art my God, my healer, my friend.
this is my heart. this is my prayer. this is for you.

Knowledge

 Without knowledge of self there is no knowledge of God. John Calvin

   Without knowledge of self there is no knowledge of God. – John Calvin (1509-1564)

 

 

 

 


Matter

Gothic Church

 

Here is the crux of the whole matter.
In this material world, the Christian
believes that none of the things he
or she can touch are really worth very
much. The Christian endures as seeing
the invisible, the spiritual – another
world. For him or her, that which has
real existence is spirit, not matter.
A.W. Tozer (1897-1963)
