How I met God

attention internalised
thought flow rested
my heart was at peace 
though earth life tested 

I became a witness
motionless in vast space 
doing nothing thus
I invoked God’s grace

fears and desires ebbed
bliss magnetism was activated
no demons then remained 
needing to be placated

one night in vibrant stillness 
debts of love were recalled 
seeing misdeeds of my past
I was repentant and appalled

at that moment God appeared
in light soft white yet bright
He erased past transgressions 
and said it is alright

God then gently held my hand
and said be joyous on this earth
live out your life span in peace
with heart bubbling in mirth

He revealed we too are as He
made in His image ~ living light
earth is a school to grow in wisdom
love taking us on a wingless flight

such was my encounter with God
He reveals Himself when it is time
however we always hear His voice
betwixt love’s bliss beat chime
