Quality Time with God

“A lonely day is God's way of saying that he wants to spend some quality time with you.”
― Criss Jami, Killosophy

I really don’t know
if God would want to spend this day with me

this is one of those days
when I am tired

tired of hate
tired of fear
tired of really bad theology
and Christians behaving badly

(Christians are not the only one’s of course
  but since I take that label, and because the
  instructions about how we are to treat others
  are so clear….)

but I would really like to have God along
for the 7 or 8 hour drive

I need a little restoration
for my soul is frayed

and Sacred is good at that
a little love
a little reconciliation

Sacred Presence
the experience of the divine
overwhelming the words
and behaviors that wound

come my Beloved
come
