Isaiah 40:5
Then the glory of the Lord shall
be revealed,
and all people shall see it together,
for the mouth of the Lord has spoken.’
and all people shall see it together,
for the mouth of the Lord has spoken.’
You are the glory
Open the
door of our souls, O Lord, and release the river of Love flowing from within
that we may shine with your glory.
We see the
glory of the Lord in snowscapes of winter, the grandeur of mountains and the
yawning immensity of space littered with billions of galaxies. We are moved by
sunlight broken into spectrums as it streams through window panes and plays on
walls and floors.
The earth
is alive with the glory of God, but the greatest glory of all is our own human
souls made free by Love God is.
Isaiah,
the prophet, saw the vision of a freed people on their way home from bondage,
released to truly live again by the Love of the Eternal Mystery whose will and
ways are embedded deep in the working out of history.
They made
their way home across wilderness and wasteland. But with each step they
realized they were already home … even though the miles stretched out before
them.
They felt
themselves being carried forward by the One Love who came to their aid,
comforting their souls with the freedom that comes only when one is filled with
the love who is Love.
With each
step, they came to know the glory of God is a soul filled with the ecstatic freedom and
gratitude Love releases in the human heart.
It makes
your eyes shine with a light and glory more luminous than
all the galaxies God ever imagined.
Seeing it,
you know: No other glory is quite so bright.
Pr. David L. Miller
