Divine Paradox
Love is not a construct, it is our natural home.
You are not God
But you are His Kingdom
A spark of the Divine enlightens you
And is inherent to who you are
I am not God
But I do create
I create meaning
I choose my beliefs
I live a life no one else can
Like you live a life no one else can
We create who we are
What we like
What we don’t like
What we grow to like
Who we grow to be
Nothing in life is fair
Because there is a Grace that gives us more than we earn
We have so much untapped power to be peace
Yet in all our failures God’s power still meets us
Showing us more kindness whether we notice it or not
We live in a distorted world
Where the shadow of a very small thing
Can leave our hearts dark and trembling
But if we were to be a little more light
We would see that shadow is just a distortion
That is cast from a very small thing
Buddhism tells me Fear is a construct
A man made choice I built in my mind
A personal choice we each make
In order to fail in the most painful way
But after you fail
You achieve in hindsight
And you never have to fail that way again
Love is not a construct
It is our natural home
Where we fit and where we prosper
We don’t have to build it
It is who we are
Before we existed we were loved
Imagined by God and chosen to exist
