His Amazing Grace

Line of inquiry:
“Neither desire nor aversion
 Meditation our immersion
 Conditioned beliefs discarded
 Hymns we hum are our own version”

A child I was, when Nuns taught me in school; so God was with me from an early age. The catechism shaped for me each rule- my soul's foundation at this tender stage, to help unlock a door I would engage. My reading about God was not the key- but seeing what He is- enlightened me. That feeling that He's near in all I do, the balances of nature, my guarantee- internal hymns of love, faith, hope, accrue. I sing the hymn of Love through family, and feel God's care is echoed from each heart. I sing the Hymn of Faith, a tapestry of sunset glow that leads to a fresh start, and sing my Hymn of Hope on new day's chart. Love, Faith, and Hope are His Amazing Grace- my heart and soul, with God there, interface.
