Have you ever ventured into silence?
Have you looked into the depths of your heart?
Have you sought the God within you?
Have you spoken to the Eternal One?

Slow the beating of your heart
Still your busy mind
Breathe in the air around you
Find the peaceful calm
Close your eyes and look beyond
Upon the face of Love
Study then His searching eyes
And find your spirit’s rest
Gaze on Him who knows you well
And Whose depth of love 
Is deeper than the deepest well. 

God’s image is written on your heart
He lives in you, if you live in Him.
Trust in Him, the Perfect One
For He can take the broken pieces
And make them perfectly one
Our God, Creator and Father -
Radiant, with Spirit and Son.
