Reflection
This day, Holy One, let me stay in the current of love flowing
from your divine heart. That is what these difficult words are about, are they
not?
Our brother, Jesus, tells us what you want for us, and yes,
for the world, too.
The sweet light of morning, the dawning of newness on
fresh-fallen snow, glows gold and blinding crystal on powdery white so recently
fallen from winter skies.
Light streams over the earth, a new day, a fresh start.
Nothing stops the light. Nothing stops the day from coming.
It is a flow of grace, of love and wonder from you who are Infinite Source.
It does not select or choose. It just flows, on and on,
seeking every cold corner to warm and make alive.
This is your nature, ever flowing light embracing the earth
and warming our hearts with the hope that life might be as bright and wondrous
as the scene outside my window.
I look and see, but you invite me to more, to come out and
play in the morning light and be warmed through so that I am one with the light
that delights my senses and awakens my heart.
“Be one with me,” you say. “Let the light I am fill you so
that you may become light amid winter’s chill and be like the sun’s streaming
rays, ever flowing, embracing the earth and each moment like sun rays from my
eternal store.
“This is joy, and everything that stops the flow is pain.
“So flow, dearest one, flow, even as I flow into you on this
new winter’s day.”
Pr. David L. Miller
