Aaaaah...

IN HIS SANITY

St. Francis of Assisi (1182-1226)

If all the tenderness in this world could reflect

from my eyes, would you accept

that love?

If all

the forgiveness

the heavens have known could be offered

from one

face,

would you accept that

divine pardon?

In His sublime sanity--

every moment God offers

that to us:

anything that might

comfort.

If you want a life you love, 

love the life you have.

 
 Receive the moment as a gift.  

 Bow to what is given, 

embrace what is coming.

 

And you will be wealthier 

than all the creatures
 on this sacred Earth.

 

- Jeff Foster
