Wings of Silence
My Lord,
I spread my wings in this,
My poor prayer.
I wait,
Trustingly, wait,
For You, My Lord.
You come, hovering,
And then,
Like a breeze
Beneath my pinions,
Fill and lift me.
I rest on the Wind,
Knowing,
It is Your Spirit
Holding me aloft.
At Your invitation,
I rise,
Ever higher,
Resting on the Wind.
Hugging Your hallowed Presence,
I can simply be,
Knowing,
You know me.
It is the silence of my heart That dares speak,
As soaring,
Without effort,
I hear Your Silence,
Your knowing,
Loving, Silence.

From His Fullness
Gabriel spoke God’s Words,
“Full of Grace”.

Do not fear to take Mary for your mother, if you are His beloved disciple. She is His gift given with His Blood from the Cross. Her capacity to bless you flows from God’s fullness.

For the Open -minded Atheist
Recommended reading for open minded atheists and agnostics: “The Experience of God” by David Brentley Hart. According to Dr. David Anders, it gets you outside a Christian bias and helps you approach the topic of God in a rigorous philosophical way. He also recommends Edward Feser’s “Five Proofs for the Existence of God,
Anthony Phlew’s “There is a God” http://www.thedivineconspiracy.org/Z5222E.pdf
David Conway ‘s “Rediscovery of Wisdom”. Proofs for the Aristotelian concept of God. He is not a Christian and is not trying to prove the Christian concept of God
