Seeing the Beauty

Rev. Jeffrey Symynkywicz, November 6, 2005

There amid the brambles and the overgrown weeds,
the tangled mass of overgrowth so disheveled,
there lie holy flowers waiting to be discovered,
uncovered, made visible upon the earth.

The breeze of the Spirit blows over them
and their beauty is uncovered;
the breath of the Spirit sweeps through us
and our hearts beat with the passion of Life.

Listen to the Spirit breathing in you;
open your eyes to the finer ways of Love.
New discoveries of Grace always lie
enveloped in the mundane duties of dailyness.

Open your eyes and let them see again
God’s beauty.
Open your heart and let it beat again
with life.

Then you will truly discern
the glory and the splendor of this world;
then you will truly know at last
the power and the beauty of your life.
