A Sense of God

It comes with the Light, driving darkness to dust, breathing life into death, freeing all touched softly. There is a special way of seeing, of seeing without your eyes-- there is a special way of hearing, a way of hearing beyond human ears-- and a way of smelling a rose before its seed is in the earth-- and a way, a miraculous way, of touching a beating heart with unseen hands.... It took no more than one drop of His blood to save a world lost in fear... lost in madness....

When I went far offshore fishing, I "sensed" God's presence. It wasn't the fish, sunshine or even the sea, just an overwhelming feeling of being "one" with him. And surely I agree with your last stanza. Very nicely penned, L.J.

Thanks Carolyn-- and yes, every so often some of us are fortunate enough to get that transcendent feeling-- I only wish it weren't so rare....
