Dearly Beloved,
Grace and Peace to you.
My sheep hear my voice. I know them, and they follow me.
— John 10.27
Listen.
In the temple, at the appointed time—
that’s just practice.
Open the ear of your heart
and listen for the Beloved’s voice
in silence, in the street, under the noise,
in all the voices, in what they never say.
Each moment,
the Beloved wants to speak with you.
•
No stranger holds the keys to your life,
no official reads a list.
The Beloved knows you,
fits in your skin,
feels what it’s like,
knows the why and how.
Loves that, not who you could have been.
Listen to the One who knows you.
•
Learn to let the Beloved lead you dancing.
Trust the gentle touch, the guiding embrace,
the leading nudge.
Don’t be afraid to leave anything behind
to stay with One who holds your life—
anything.
You will always be waking up in heaven,
always coming home
to yourself,
crazy with love.
Deep Blessings,
Pastor Steve
