God is at home
it is we who have gone out for a walk
into our garden
on mossy paths
through scented bushes and flowers that nod as we pass,
trees with apricot shaded branches against deep blue sky
furry buds of Spring though the blue sky means cold tonight and the buds must sleep a while longer,
the silence beyond the sound is here – look beyond to explore the silence and awaken to the now
God is not then, there was, will be, can be.
God is
and the ‘is’ is you.
and within each flower, bush and bee
insect, worm and bacteria,
all that live in your garden
God is within them too.
Look and look again
wonder at at their beauty
and relish their life for it is all too short and yet lives on in each seed and bulb and root
and spring will bring them again to live in sunshine and rain
Our life is all too short
and full of care and woe
and yet,
if,
and know
we are here
in the now
and present in that now
then we are in God and God is within us and all of life
These are charming pictures of life so close to you. Thanks for making me realize that I need to look more closely in my own back yard! http://ohtheplaceswesee.com
