Before the Beginning

. Before The beginning . Did the Spirit Still dance? . And was the breath Of life . The Word Whose echoes . Still now Sing? .

Inspiration

. If the word Is with God . Then the breath Of the universe . Is Inspiration. .

The Joy of All Being

. Receiving the freshness Of the first . Day Of creation . This morning As if . Breath Had just entered . The dust Of the earth . As if seeing For the first time . The joy Of all being. . Image by Tim Hill from Pixabay

Make Life Whole

God Take possession . Of all That I am . My sins My vices . The bones And the breath . Of my brittle Body . God Take possession . Of my spirit My soul . For by taking Possession . You make life Whole. . Image by armennano from Pixabay

Rejoice!

"Rejoice in God, O ye Tongues; give the glory to the Lord, and the Lamb. Nations, and languages, and every Creature, in which is the breath of Life. Let man and beast appear before him, and magnify his name together." . from Jubilate Agno by Christopher Smart Adoration of the Lamb, Jan van Eyck

Dependant

This fragile Existence . Dependant On so much . Beyond Soul’s control . Each breath Each bone . In our body Each circumstance . Depending Always . On mysterious Transcendence . On infinite favour And infinite grace. .

Spirit’s Breath

Always the greater care . Beyond all human care . The loving kindness of God . Whose Spirit’s breath whirls . Around, between, within.
