"When you really look for me,
you will see me instantly."
Kabir
Watching the moon pass across the sky, I sipped hot tea with the fireplace crackling. I had been journaling about life transitions and evolution of the body, mind and soul. I was recalling how close I used to feel to God in church or a small isolated chapel. I would seek God's word in the bible and stimulating material from differing religions.
I realized the exploring of other religions is what led me to a broader definition of God. In high school my home room teacher/mentor V.J. gave me a book which I still have....."The Hound of Heaven." This helped me better understand God's interest in little old me.
In my life today, I do not have to 'go' anywhere to be close or to be one with God. There is a sacred tabernacle living within me where I can find support, understanding, and courage. If you are searching for Divine, stop. Sit and contemplate. Simply listen as God is waiting for us to discover sacred presence within and surrounding us entirely.
