                                                                                   Mandala: (colored pencils) by ~liz

In the Mind of God


    We catch intimate glimpses

of shadows and light

Your radiance illuminates

my thoughts

in fleeting 
moments

that can only be held

in colors of gratitude

For each spoke

of wheel’s turning

balances the spoken

with your unseen nature

The crowning thorns

we no longer  need

for  Love knows
us

 as Holy

    Thank you Liz for your beautiful reflection.
    As we come and live in the light, we shine with the joy and the love of the Lord…. for the beauty created reflects ones Creator…. and as we are called to serve and love one another so we walk holy and humbly with God.

    Thank you Karen, Victoria, Susan and Marily for your loving affirmations.
    “In every man’s (woman’s) life there are moments when
    there is a lifting of the veil at the horizon of the
    known, opening a sight of the eternal…. But such
    experiences are rare events. To some people they
    are like shooting stars, passing and unremembered.
    In others they kindle a light that is never quenched.”
    ~Rabbi Abraham Heschel

    Liz: your mandala is beautiful and I love the colors you have beautifully blended. No matter what our religion or culture we can love God and our fellow men as we are all entwined in His marvellous creation and can express His love.

    Those precious moments, the glimpses that surprise are Gifts Eternal. May our lives reflect more brightly the diamonds that God has hidden within each of us.
