The sky is the only omnipresence we all accept. So look up!

I will never end

Filed under: poetry — kathryntherese at 10:44 am on Wednesday, June 18, 2008

I stood on the edge of forever

as if I had forgotten that

I will never end

and

the universe is expanding

so

I am becoming even smaller.

Remembering this suddenly,

opened up within me

infinite capacities to hold

the Infinite

and

be held by Him.

Is seeing believing?

I’m here to say that seeing is NOT believing.

Seeing is seeing;

believing without seeing is believing.

Abraham hoped against hope

and not seeing, grew in faith

and became the Father of many.

Moses saw the Face of God

because he had faith,

but did not

enter the Promised Land.

Be love in the world…

Stand in the gap where love should be.

Become love in the world; love like Me.

“I don’t know how…” but then I see

Love poured out for all, on a Tree.

musings on wineskins

Filed under: poetry — kathryntherese at 9:56 pm on Sunday, June 1, 2008

Selfward hearts renewed by Your touch

            Become ready wineskins

            Awaiting the rich new wine

                        The Spirit outpours.

Thirsting for Truth

We draw near Your

            Wellspring of grace deep within us

                        Released at last.

We are made in Your image but

            Our capacities remain hidden until

            We are ready for the scales to fall from

                        Re-focused eyes.

New-bright eyes see endless spaces in which to

            Pour love. New wineskins

            Are meant to pour out new wine for

                        All who thirst.

Trinity

Unity, but not solitude.

In the very Heart of Absolute Being, community of mutual self-gift and fruitfulness.

Father is only Father if there is Son.

Son is only Son if there is Father.

Father, looking at His Image, His Idea; Son beholding Father with love

a self-communication bears Fruit which is also the Breath of the Son, breathed on friends.

The Spirit is the is the Breath on which the Word is sung eternally.

The Word of Love.

I will open my mouth and let You sing through me.

Love others through me.

In the silence of our night

You whisper syllables of light…

This is not a poem; it only looks like one

Filed under: poetry — kathryntherese at 10:13 am on Thursday, March 13, 2008

The Voice of the Word is silent.

The Light of the World burns in darkness.

All is found in emptiness.

Poured out utterly for Love, we at last possess All.
