Close your eyes
Listen
It is early, still dark
Already awake, resting
What do you hear?
Cats asleep
Just the quiet of the house
Listen again, silence
Hear your heart beat
Your breath, in and out
Let your mind be still

A whisper
A few more voices, conversation
Music
A choir sings 
A light appears, so bright you cannot see
Bow your head
You are in His presence
Awestruck, humbled, speechless
Your heartbeat matches countless others
One with all humanity
Brothers and sisters
And the Father
“You are all one, you know”
“Feed my Lambs”, he says
Eyes fill with grateful tears, now opened
And open
Go in Peace
Serve the Lord 
Thanks be to God
