a poem of Wisdom from the teachings of Cynthia Bourgeault

I take up the shards of this new day.

I accept the constraints that hold me together.

I offer this shape to the Original Light.

I stand ready for the radiance to shine through.

Logion 29
Yeshua says…
If flesh came into existence for the sake of spirit,
it is a wonder,
but if spirit exists for the sake of flesh,
it is a wonder of wonders.
I am truly astonished
at how such richness
came to dwell in such poverty.
