Strands

Gary Edward Geraci

 

“Of His fulness we all have received.” John 1:16

 

That the numinous calling is ubiquitous,

One strand; numerous answers to objections,

Another; music, art, soaring cathedrals and beautiful liturgies,

Still more; a recorded, time tested, repeated,

Testament of miracles, the Shroud of Turin,

Near death experiences, the sense of well-being

(Even if only psychological),

An intellectual tradition among like minded friends.

 

How does one break down or reduce Infinite Goodness?

Since Baptism this is the Light that has not gone out;

A daily renovation by the Holy Spirit;

The name of Jesus gently washing upon every shore.

Taken together, twisted, an unbreakable cable,

Suspending the bridge between the here and the There.

    Good write Gary.
    Some have near-death experiences when they hear me sing! Or they feel like death warmed up. Me singing gives them that feeling! I must improve. lol.
