Aware of personal weakness,
The Intercession of Christ and the Virgin, before 1402, by Lorenzo Monaco, (Piero di Giovanni), Italian, ca. 1370–1425,
failure.
After years of striving
for more of His Presence
ego and pride had shattered.
Exhausted and defeated .
SUDDENLY,
breaking through the clammer of mundane, mindless duties,
unexpected words
pop into my mind
seemingly out of nowhere.
You are Mine
but even more startling
I am yours.
Frozen in shocked confusion.
Still more light pierces
the ice of my boxed in brain
you are now one of Us
in communion with the Trinity
you are in Us and
We are in you.
Recognition of Truth
then
a slow smile spreads
wider and wider
as
eyes dance with joy.
I am home.
Light as triumphed over darkness
