It became clear
that everything most
sacred
had come out of
a quiet prayer.
I knew,
without doubt,
that every single
real treasure
in my life had
come out of
an ever deepening
inner surrender —
a sinking down
and trusting in
my own true essence
a little more
completely.
More and more
attention was placed
on the embrace
of love
that enveloped
all of my
experiences.
It no longer
made sense
to continue focusing
anything less into
form.
Life continued
to unfold.
There were difficult
moments.
But they were
always held
and honored in
the purest
love.
It was seen
that all things
emerged from
and faded back into
that same
love.
I found
it was possible
to follow
a gentler path.
Old patterns
were seen clearly
and had lost
their hold.
The pull
was toward
the peace
I held in my
heart.
And I was grateful
for each tiny step
toward its unfolding.
I vowed to stand
within my heart
in all of my
experiences.
In that moment,
I learned
the value in
the willingness
to allow myself
to feel my true
essence
and to be led
gently from there.
May your mind
be calm
and your
spirit held, safely —
here.
Amen
Let our minds
be quieted,
just enough —
that we may hear
and follow
the quiet prayer
of our hearts.
Amen
