At Home
How wonderful to feel at home
As I touch my deepest desires, see them threaded through my life day after day, I feel at home
It is awesome and comforting, profound and so very mundane.
I am most myself when I feel at home. I am most at home when I feel myself.
Oh, gentle loving Mother-God, thank you for always drawing me home!
But then you promise to make a home in me if I love you and keep your word!
Not only will I be at home, but I will BE your home!
I have come to be at home in you - in your heart – that is mystery enough!
Will you make me into a home – for you, no less?!
Yes, dear heart, I will, I have! You are my home, my dwelling place!
Come, let us be at home together!
Over the years, Holy One, deep within my being you have gradually
expanded my inner universe.
Our being at home together now has depths of meaning once never imagined.
We are at home on Mother Earth, in the Universe, or some would say,
even amidst multi-verses.
Together is a lively diverse crowd, a kin-dom of two-leggeds, four-leggeds, many-leggeds, finned and furred and slithering ones, growing, granite, grainy ones and more…
on and on and on.
Yet we are all called to be at home together in mutually-enhancing ways
Contemplatives in action co-creating with you together in mercy, justice, kinship,
a cosmic dance of Love.
