Summon The Sacred Within

We are all creations of God, who gifted us with all we need ...

Summon the Sacred 

not from our words
or from priestly incantations
but from our life, in the daily deeds and giving 

Summon the Sacred.

not by desire to fit in
or to please others expectation
but led by our heart's divinity discovered within

Summon the Sacred

not a voice that booms 
from out of the heavens 
from that still small voice that hopes we will listen

Summon the Sacred

not from teachers 
ensconced in their ivory towers
but from all creatures, mountains, rivers and flowers 

Summon the Sacred

not from learned books
or schools that may be the gates of hell
but from our natural and holy, heartfelt curiosity 

Summon the sacred

not by destruction 
wrought in the name of liberty
but with love, it flows like water, so smoothly and freely.

Summon the sacred within,

thanks sister Gael Bage .
