Consider the celebrations you have had, shared in, and witnessed.
Consider the tragedies you have had, shared in, and witnessed.
The Divine Existence has space for the complexity and welcomes it all.
We try to build systems to account for whatever we see as most important.
Political, educational, economical.
The width of humanity's tragedy and celebration
The height and depth of humanity's risings and fallings, the height and depth of humanity's richness.
The volume of experiences which fill up our news feeds, minds, and hearts.
The Divine Existence has a seat for us to cry, rejoice, rage, and cower.
We create art to express ourselves.
We choose to believe in one thing or another, one person or another, one movement or another.
Each claiming they have the best way forward, the best way to accomplish human flourishing.
The human experience is unfathomably complex.
The Divine Existence is unfathomably welcoming to every human.
The brokenness we experience has a place for restoration.
The goodness we have to share has a community for sharing and growth.
The places where we dwell have a source of life.
The habitats we yearn for are made available with this Divine Existence.
Sorrow abounds.
Joy resounds.
Tragedy explodes.
Creativity surrounds.
The Human Experience cannot be defined, solved, or fully seen by any.
The Divine Existence, though, is with all.
The wholeness of all of humanity yearns for so much.
Love.
Acceptance.
Peace.
Victory.
The wholeness of all humanity has experienced so much.
Leading to destructive ways and hateful speech.
Leading to loving and helpful endeavors.
Human wholeness is not seen in any one space, area, or group.
The Divine Existence sees and knows all.
Limited humanity, complete with the community of the divine.
Jesus, resurrected, victorious over death.
Welcoming all into the home of the Divine.
A wholeness we have yet to come to.
A wholeness and home and with-ness that our minds can scarcely comprehend.
Let the Divine, God Father Son Spirit guide us to love.
