Failure and Loss

forest-fire-432870_1280

So often have I
come to life
through failure
and loss
that I have
come to wonder
if there is
any other way.

Simple Words

writer-360790_1280

We strain
for top shelf,
fancy words
that will impress,
but often find
it’s the heartfelt,
simple words
that bless.

Search for Love

water-lily-1232048_1280

We begin our search
for love, riding
a wild and wily wind
of complexity,
but, in the end, arrive
at our destination
on a gentle breeze
of simplicity.

Longing

boot-1200793_1280

May your longing
for life in the Spirit
evolve into an abiding
trust in the Spirit’s
longing to guide you
to your heart’s
deepest desire.

Truth, Beauty, and Goodness

abstract-1080252_1280

The gate of your heart
swings both ways,
allowing truth, beauty,
and goodness to flow
both in and out.

Intention

A conscious intention
provides an anchor
for a soul adrift.

The wise…

The wise do not lose themselves
in explanations of love,
but in love itself.

Kindness

Be fully present to another in the moment
and let the fragrance of kindness perfume the air.

Feet and Hands

man-1394395_1280

When your faith
has found its way
into the muscles,
bones and blood
of your feet and hands
perhaps it is time
for the next step
of your journey.
