Seeker's Contest: Embodying the Light  -  2/07/2025

Line of inquiry truth imbibed awaits assimilation we feel it in our bones in time dissolved meditation There's a sacred sanctuary in my soul, a secluded realm only God can read. I absorb light like the sun's rays of gold, illuminating my heart when I've the need. There dwells the truth to the depth of my core. deeper than the marrow inside my bones. A radiance impossible to ignore, shining brightly when I pray in undertones. Swiftly, it flows in me when I meditate, focused on the reason to take my next breath. My faith is refueled and I contemplate the irrelevant dread of mortal death. Embodied light does not dim in the dark. It's spiritual strength cannot be disputed God ignites in me the kindling of a spark, so brilliant so as not to be refuted. It can't be called inconsequential or trite. Enlightenment is found, not with eyes alone It radiates within us to zenith height with the magnetic power of a loadstone.

You didn't miss it. You're here and I'd trade a few days late for a trip to Spain. ;-) Thanks, Tom.
