Today’s text

Romans 12: 15

Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep.

One

You pull us out of isolation into splendid oneness with all that lives. You draw us to share what we are and receive the being of another, opening our eyes to the fact that there is no other, no outsider, no alien.

All are part of one great Life, all dwell and have their being in you who are Being itself. You dwell in all that is, and you love everything you have made without condition or limit.

You stagger me in these morning hours. Tears are the only language that speak the wonder of finding your love inside our hearts, filling our being so that we know utter and totally oneness with you and each other.

This is not a decision we make, not a choice at which we arrive. It is a gift and startling break-through that happens as we give ourselves to laugh and play, cry and comfort each other.

In the flow of living, we discover we are not separate from each other but one, sharing not just a common humanity, a common earth and universe, but a common life that is your life.

Discovering a oneness in sharing our lives, we know you, the Love from whom all things come, the Love that is the core of our being, our true selves, the Love that expresses itself in our tears, crystal pearls of praise for you who are Love. 

You invite us to rejoice and weep with each other so we may truly live … and be utterly filled … with you.

Pr. David L. Miller
