Presence

To tell you the truth, there are mornings when I awaken and have no feeling whatsoever of the aura of God surrounding me. Her presence just is nowhere to be found. There is an emptiness inside and a nothingness around me on days this occurs; I feel adrift.

 

I am surrounded by those I love, but I feel alone!

 

Then I remember the words of philosopher Jacques Maritain, “If there’s a place where Christ isn’t present, you go there. Christ will be present this way.” 

 

And I know I will be safe.

 

My meditation strong, I once again feel God surrounding me, feel God within me and within those I love, reminding me that God loves us all.

 

I no longer fear my advancing age; Yahweh Tsuri: God is my rock!
