Mindful Mondays: Morning Mystics

I woke early one morning and I couldn’t sleep

I needed a different kind of rest

eyes closed

body still

I finally stop to let Your silence enfold me

nothing but me and You

as it was in the beginning

resting in Your presence

I let go

a full surrender

a humble pause

a deep breath

I yearned for this moment

amidst the death and the dying

in the swirling chaos

within the cloud of uncertainty

under the weight of injustice

I’ve realized I’ve missed You

and I want to stay wrapped tightly in Your presence

no questions asked

no requests made

just to sit and be

Communion
