Beloved, I have been looking for You in all the wrong rooms.
So begins this collection of original devotional poetry - the companion volume to Who Is God? From Believing to Knowing. Where that book walked the reader, step by careful step, into the recognition that there is only God, this one sings it.
Sixty-six poems travel through eight movements of one soul's journey home:
The Longing - the ache that begins every search
The Dark Night - the tired heart that still believes
Surrender - the letting go that opens every door
The Finding - the discovery that God was never far
The Beloved - the lover's voice of the mystic tradition
The One - the recognition that all is One
The World - the sacred hiding in the ordinary day
The Going Home - death without fear, and the return to the Source
Written in the tradition of the mystic poets - in rhyme and rhythm meant to be read aloud - these poems are made for the quiet hours: one with the morning coffee, one before sleep, one on the day the heart needs somewhere to rest.
This is a book to keep by the bed and open anywhere. Read it in order as one journey, or let it fall open and trust the page. Whoever you are, whatever name you use for the One, these poems were written in the language the heart speaks when prose is not enough.
For lovers of the mystic poets, ancient and modern. For anyone who has ever whispered a question into the dark. For the tired, the searching, and the quietly grateful.
There is only One, beloved. And the One is reading these words with your eyes.
