GOD WITHIN

 

Hush, my busy little world.

The voice at the door of my heart is soft with love

and can only be heard in silence.

“I am Light,” it says. “I am Truth.

and you will give birth to me,

light in the shadows of your house,

truth in the city of illusion.”

 

I know this voice,

better than I know myself,

but still I am greatly afraid.

Lord, I’m so ordinary, so very small.

How can this strange thing be?

 

I hear the answer before I’ve asked the question.

“Beloved of God, everyone was made for this.

But it’s only the ordinary and the small

who have room for me.”
