Presence.

There is an Inner Presence within each of us
A part of our Being
Our Center
The Life Force that creates us and makes us whole.
 
It connects us to the Great I Am
To Infinite Love
To Divinity.
 
This Presence lives within us, through us, around us.
 
It is Energy
Radiance
Resonance.
 
Some say it dwells in our hearts
Others feel it in their guts
The Wisdom-Keepers say it is our Soul.
 
I’m not sure what to call it
I cannot point to its location
But I feel it gently burning in my chest
Its warmth spreading throughout my body.
 
I often get too busy, too noisy to be aware of this Presence
But it’s always there, waiting for me
Hoping I’ll open my heart to its Divine Wisdom.
 
And in moments of quiet stillness
I am awed by its Mystery
I am embraced by Infinite Love.
