Dear All of Us,
My four-year-old
Grand Son
Ollie
and his mother
cohabited for
nine progressive,
pregnant months.
Like so many
young people today,
Ollie is reluctant
to move out.
Ollie is bright,
happy, active,
normal, sociable
and
Mom is still
home.
The other day,
all snuggled up
with my daughter,
he said:
"Mommy,
I want you to be
where I be."
WOW!!
Shared Being!
Divine
My daughter is
God Goodness
incarnate
for Ollie.
Ollie is right
at home,
based secure,
sharing in
her being.
I pray that one day
Ollie will realize
in thought
and way more
in all of life
that his being
is not only
in his mother,
but together
both he and she
BE
in the very
BEING
of
God.
Paul pointed this out
to the
Brow Bros
in Athens
"For in him we live
and move
and have our
being."
Acts 17:28
May such be
the story of
our lives.
We don't
Be
or
BE-long
alone
or
to ourselves.
We
and all
Creation
are God
being
present
wondrous varied.
"Do you not know
that your body is
a temple of
the Holy Spirit,
who is in you,
whom you
have received
from God.
You are not
your own..."
1 Corinthians 6:19
WOW SOME MORE!!
We're not
a bunch of
loner losers
left swinging
in the breeze of
cutthroat competition.
We're propertied people,
property of
Sheer Goodness
incorporated,
social and creative.
Together
we all
Be in Being.
God is our base,
source and energy.
God wants
to emanate,
to animate,
through us.
God wants to speak
through us,
love
through us,
help
through us,
build
through us,
have kids
through us,
share earth's bounty
through us,
straighten the crooked
through us,
pick up
the knocked down
through us,
make vibrant community
through us,
nurture Nature
through us,
advance research,
learning and culture
through us,
be the Body of Christ
through us,
drive carefully
through us,
cook great meals
through us,
invent helpful things
and ways for others
through us,
do a smack up job
at work
through us,
tickle tease and
tell jokes
through us,
go poetic,
paint, sing,
throw pottery
though us,
make sure
we don't keep
excess and that
others have enough
through us,
celebrate diversity
through us,
warmly welcome and
weave social
all kinds and colors
of people
through us
by our aliveness
to welcome others
to discipleship
and Kingdom Life
through us.
God invites us
to be together
in Him,
to give him
openings
for
goodness
for
Godness
to
flow share.
There is so much
to do
and
BE
Our lived prayer is:
"God, I want you to be
where I BE."
******
For
Prayer and Reflection
from
the medieval
scholar and mystic,
Meister Eckhart
"All God asks of us
is to get out of the way
so He can be God
through us."
"What is life?
God's being
is my life."
What does this
Soul Say
deep inside
on how we
BE
******
WELCOME ALL
It's so good to
BE
together.
