2015.04.18: Holy Trinity

When they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus walking on the sea and coming near the boat, and they began to be afraid. But he said to them, “It is I. Do not be afraid.” They wanted to take him into the boat, but the boat immediately arrived at the shore to which they were heading. – Jn 6:19-21

without the Spirit

we do not recognize Him

yet You still provide

2015.01.03: a water dream

last night
i slept
and dreamed

i was
in a well

i felt
water
all around

i was
one
with the water

i saw
the stars
framed
(a round picture)
above me

no limbs
to climb out

no panic

i heard
a voice
echoing
in the silence
“go deeper”

so deeper
i dove
deeper
than i’ve
ever been

i felt
a current
gently tugging
and heard
a voice
beckoning
“follow me”

I knew
the voice
and followed

weary
finally
i surrendered
my will

yet
i remained
aware

the river
carried me

onward
we flowed
ever onward

suddenly
i was
in an ocean

i was
in the ocean
and the river
and the well
all at once

i saw lights
from the distant
seashore

i noticed
the moon
and the stars
gleaming brightly
in the water
with me

i am
one
with the water

the water
and i
are one

i woke up
this morning
thinking
“i can’t swim”
