oh wonder of the universe, that
I should sit here … like this…
quietly contemplating
the silence…
spinning in the quiet clouds of fragrant smoke,
swirling… I drift… alone.
And you, halfway around the world…
are closely pondering
This same face of Christ…
the Eucharist.
This burning furnace of charity …
His Heart is steady…
unchanging… beating…
quiet flames that are precisely the same for all eternity,
relentlessly pulling us towards
this mystery of Life…
the rhythm of His chest…
rising and falling.
And even though vast blue skies
and depths of oceans unknown ….
separate us… they can do nothing
to divide us from this
same universal Truth:
Christ is the Eucharist.
This is so beautiful. And so true and life-changing. Thanks so much for sharing your heart through these beautiful words.

Thank you so much for the extremely kind comments. We owe all of our being, all of everything we have… All of everything we don’t have…. Back to God. When I gather my thoughts and write, I just pray to bring glory to the One I owe my everything… As well as my nothing. God bless.
