The First Awareness of God
Poem 1: The First Awareness of God
God is not introduced.
God is noticed.
Awareness arrives quietly.
It does not announce itself with thunder.
It settles into the soul like recognition.
Something has always been there.
You simply begin to feel it.
A presence without form.
A knowing without language.
You sense that life is not accidental.
Moments feel intentional.
Breath feels borrowed.
Silence begins to speak.
You notice beauty differently.
Light feels meaningful.
The heart stirs without explanation.
Questions arise without fear.
Who am I beyond my name?
Why does existence feel sacred?
God does not demand attention.
God waits for awareness.
This awareness humbles the ego.
It softens certainty.
It expands wonder.
You realize you are not alone.
You never were.
The universe feels held.
Time feels guided.
You feel seen without being watched.
Loved without being chased.
Awakening is not conversion.
It is remembrance.
It is the soul recognizing its source.
Nothing changes outwardly.
Everything changes inwardly.
Faith begins before belief.
God becomes felt before understood.
This awareness is the beginning of relationship.
