Transformative Power of Prayer
When in daily prayer
you seek to surrender
yourself to the Spirit
and not to make
the moon and stars
dance in the sky,
you will sooner understand
the transformative power
of prayer.
Sometimes…
Sometimes it takes
the greatest courage
to take action,
sometimes to endure,
sometimes to say “yes”
or sometimes “no,”
sometimes to just walk away.© 2017 Dennis Ference
The Treasure

Beyond all the jargon,
practices, and dogmas,
the treasure lies unadorned
in the simple freedom to be
your True Self, wholly present
in this moment.© 2015 Dennis Ference
Waiting for You
Sometimes you can’t see
the good that is out there
waiting for you
until you step out on a limb.© 2017 Dennis Ference
Lost
How sad that anxieties
over the opinion of others
have caused so many beautiful,
creative works to be lost
to our world forever.© 2015 Dennis Ference
The Weight of “Things”
When will we learn
that the weight
of “things”
keeps us from
soaring with
the angels?© 2017 Dennis Ference
Healing
Blessed is the hurting one
who has come to understand
that surrender to the Spirit
is the deepest healing of all.© 2017 Dennis Ference
Need for Gifts
If you are feeling a nagging need
to be given gifts,
perhaps you have misunderstood,
forgotten, or neglected
the quiet weavings of relationship, where,
at their deepest,
giving and receiving
are one.© 2017 Dennis Ference
The Greatest Gift
Because God is love,
to love another soul
is to give him God.~Alan Watts
