A Living God
I wanted a living God in my Being,
I wanted to feel a presence
In me
That was written in the Holy books.
I did not want to think –
Love, humility, compassion,
And forgiveness
I wanted to feel it in my heart,
Know it from the inside
Feel it run through my veins.
This has been my spiritual journey.
To remove the blocks inside me
That prevented me from feeling a living God.
Removing the resentments, the failures,
The hurt, the betrayal from my heart
To allow the channel of Love to open
In my heart.
To genuinely and authentically
Love, love everyone
love myself
And be loved.
To know and feel God passing through me
Each and everyday
Raising me to more than I am.
Helping me get past me.
A Living God.
