Express Peace. Invisible Peace. 85.
Invisible Peace
I’m laughing at myself and with myself, for today’s peace is invisible.
It’s been such fun and easy to identify an image or event or sound that showed me my peace. Every day of 84 in a row.
Today, as I’ve been asking, “What will I name between ‘Express Peace.’ and ’85.’?”, no answer has come. And as I asked I so clearly felt the peace I’ve felt all day. And it’s been a busy one. A day of questions and slippery answers. A day of answers the questions didn’t want to hear. A day of do and then do over. And over.
All the while, through all of that, my peace has never left me. A sure sign I’ve not left my awareness of Peace. I’m not boasting my ability; I’m blessing my gratitude.
I’m sure I’m not alone. Can’t you recall a time when you were super-conscious that you were embracing peace? And maybe everything around you was in hubbub, still you felt the peaceful separation? Or perhaps emotions around you were driving in high gear, perhaps even yours, but the highway beneath them was smooth and straight and peaceful to drive on?
So today’s peace is invisible. That is OK. Interesting that what’s invisible opens my eyes. After all these days of gladly finding peace tangibly around me, finding peace just as Peace today is enchanting.
Something to take a good long look at.
Spirit,
You are invisible.
Expressions of you, reflecting their reality
as your will, are all the things we see
and hear
and touch
and taste
and smell.
The peace the grass beneath our feet enjoys
as do our feet. The peace the cardinal’s songs chirp
and our ears and hearts applaud. The peace
the roasting garlic perfumes and thrills our nose.
The peace a baby’s face giggles and our eyes laugh too.
The peace a sweet grape spurts and sates our taste buds.
All this and then the special beauty of the peace we feel
and cannot see. Invisible peace filling us without attachment
to any physical source and yet
with clear connection to the Peace you are.
This may be the closest of our peaces yet, none of our senses
are between the peace and us.
And so it is. And so we thank you, GOD.
Amen. Amen.
Enjoy Peace. Express Peace.
