God’s eyes

Dearly Beloved,
Grace and Peace to you.
         
         

Through the narrow slot
of the blinders of suffering or shame
we see only desolation.
At times we despair of this within,
unable to reach out of the black pit.
At times it is just as we wish,
filling the void with other people’s bodies.
But there in the darkness,
within the obscuring wound,
beneath the wailing silence,
from within the wrenched heart,
God sees glory,
honors the living soul,
and raises the Blessed One
to life that is eternal and victorious,
untouched by cruelty or grief,
given firm and radiant flesh.

Those with dead eyes
go on believing they are dead.
The living appear living
only to those who see with the eyes of God.

         
         
Deep Blessings,
Pastor Steve
