On a frozen night in an empty place,
I called out to You and thought You
Were not there. Heavens gifts shone
Down upon me but I could not see. I
Pushed You away believing I could get
Through this life on my own. I
Became so afraid to speak Your Name,
For fear of judgement and humiliation.
I curled into foetal position,
And stared blankly at nothing. Those
Around me believed not in the Father and
I was looked upon as someone oddly
Strange and eccentric...........
The fear of God penetrated the
Entire circle and arguments began,
Violence erupted and wars were fought.
Peace was a shadow in the dark -
Too far away to even attempt to find!
I screamed out to all the world-:
"Please stop the fighting -
people are dying and every-ones crying
and we are all starving look around you -
there is nothing to eat except for
casks of rotted wine! -
I cannot handle this place any longer -
Jesus!
save us....
I crawled out of the dust,
Away from foetal safety and at
This moment a shining beam of love,
Shot through my heart, filling
My mind with a God's holy light. It
Extended to us all locked in judgment,
And the silent waves of pure love,
Cruised away all violent thoughts.
Ancient wars stopped and a silence -
Mystically translucent - asleep in our hearts,
Awoke us all to peace within the dreamworld...................
We look at each other as our,
Minds began to melt as one love,
Singing praise to our brother Jesus,
And to our Father God - giving thanks
For the new awakening. We circled
The world - hands held together with
The glue that joins us to the everlasting Father.......
Never again do we weep in doubt or fear,
Nor cast judgment upon one another,
As the human mind gently
Awakens to live within a holy time,
Imprinted on our minds an ancient Memory -
Fear is transmuted to love and together,
In everlasting peace we are forgiven,
For all past transgressions against our Father and
Against each other as
The light of truth leads us back,
To Him, our holy Home, truly blessed as one family................
