a poem by Sheila Towle, RScP

Spiritual Community

Home for an enquiring mind,

an open heart,

an honest voice,

a soul to feed

and be fed,

a path to wholeness.

More than

the values it holds,

the purpose it claims,

the people it accepts,

the God of its understanding,

the search for Divine Illumination.

Requires of us

to be the Light we are,

inside and outside,

seen and unseen,

in joy and tears,

with and without paradox,

to let go of what we think we know

in return for

living in love,

accepting change,

making a difference,

finding meaning,

outside of judgement,

being real,

and living the Mystery.
