Be still and see that I AM God.

Be still and see that I AM.

Be still and see That.

Be still and See.

Be still.

Be.

Note: This is my version of an unattributed poem prayer in Josh Baran’s wonderful compilation The Tao of Now, published by Hampton Roads Publishing Company in 2008. That prayer may well be by Mr Baran himself.
