A moment from God

Have you ever gotten a moment of clarity and you could see through the veil your ego throws up and for just a moment you touched divinity? This is one of those moments for me

Life is a moment
On your breath

Life is a gift
Heaven sent

Life is precious
and multifold

Life is action
and manifold

A beautiful life
Is in our grasp

We can't see it
it goes right past

Life is still
Slow it down

Life will move
With you around

Just be still
For a while

Watch the ants
as they perspire

Leaves will fall
Time will pass

You will know
yourself at last

A beautiful moment
A warm embrace

Breath the moment
Breath the grace

Sitting still in A
Moment of bliss

Thank your life
For all you miss

Author's Note

Quickie phone write. I have these moments where out of the blue I can hear God. I don't mean Gods "talking to me" or I'm speaking in tongues or some bullshit like that. I mean like suddenly everything makes stupid simple sense as if a 4 year old would know it. Like just genuinely love everyone for no good reason. Sometimes I'm amazed how much God can put up with from me and still show up from out of nowhere and make me say, Damn, why do I ignore you most of the time? I'm retarded

I feel like this sometimes...mostly your author's note; like, why have I abandoned my faith? I mean, I know why I abandoned my religion, my Catholicism, but why have I abandoned my faith? This is an incredibly thought provoking piece...one which has made me examine my own core values, and I cannot thank you enough for that.

I am joining a Baptist church. It has changed my life and I'm excited to learn about God the correct way, bible study groups. Awesome. Being with others who believe and live the life, walk the talk. Thanks for listening

I've not seen this side of you--it's a bit surprising, but nice. Seems God may have taken a shine to you.

Thank you sam. I think so too.

This should be a reading prerequisite for everyone. This is much different from your usual style as far as I know. You're growing as a writer. Great stuff.

Thank your life

I've often said life gets in the way of living, but you say it much better. Very nicely written.

[Geon Quuin]

I've never felt his presence; thus, I will follow the path I, myself, plowed.
