The Flowered Presence of GOD

faithfulness to GOD

 

BREATHING deeply the words, ‘God is in the business of miracles,’ resounds through my being.

As God attuned my heart to how to be faithful to the very will of God – to love people without favoritism so far as their response is concerned – the Presence of the Lord became a paradigm that shot past what my flesh felt at all times.

And, yet there were times, even over my lifetime, when God forced such a sanctifying bloodletting that I was primed never to do it again. Blood from God, I was to gather in all of my soul and draw upon.

Admittedly, the sight of my own foul marking gave me hope.

The common source

The flowered presence of God is feature of every single person’s life. Some never Notice it. Many have looked at it; the flowered presence of God enigmatically. Yet, the majority of people have experienced it.

It’s in the grain of life. A friend of mine who does studio interior design painted tiny mustard seeds all over the walls of an apartment to show this side of faith. It’s a constant mark of that which is, and is not. It pervades through what we do, what we’ve done, and what we haven’t done.

It’s in all of humanity.

God’s flowered presence is a constant mark of what is. It transcends comprehension.

Gathering at God’s flowered Presence
