Welcome

Primitive religion is not believed, it is danced!

Arthur Darby Nock

Earth's crammed with heaven,
And every common bush afire with God;
And only he who sees takes off his shoes;
The rest sit round it and pluck blackberries.

What does God want?

“I won’t take no for an answer,”

God began to say

to me

 

when He opened His arms each night

wanting us to

dance

                             St. Catherine of Siena

what does God want from me?

the question haunts

each

step

 

as I plod through each day

seeking answers

 

ah, for certitude

to know,

to know that I am good

with

God

to know I am becoming, me

 

and then the answer comes

“I want you to stop worrying!

all I want is your love

all I want is for us to dance

through life.

 

all I want is for you

to know you are loved

as you wallow

in the questions

 

you don’t need all the answers

 

just be loved

just love

period.”

 

and thus my New Year’s Resolution for this year

receive love, accept love

nurture love

give love

 

no more, no less

that is all

that is enough
