God is...

Folder: 
Potpourri

The warmth of the sun on your back…

The wind in your hair…

A tree stretching its arms upward in prayer…

The ripples on a lake and the trickling of a stream…

The snow on a mountaintop…

The fire from a caldera…

A book, a picture, a memory, a plan…

A breaking ocean wave. ..

Fifty miles of scorched desert…

An earthquake, a tornado, a cloud, a bolt of lightning…

A village, a town, a city, a house…

A color, a song, a light, a silence…

But most of all God is…

The light in your eyes…

The breath inside of you…

The life’s blood circulating in you…

The pain you feel or the happiness…

The desires and longings…

The ambitions and disappointments…

The tears and the smiles.

It is so simple to see all of this.

Just look at another person…

They are the mirror of your soul…

Yet so much more than your reflection…

They are you and you them…

Living or dead they are the ones in charge of your soul…

They are the ones you must ask for forgiveness…

For when you wrong one you wrong us all…

They and you and God are one…

He is not so hard to see – just look around…
