Walking into Oneness

"God speaks to each of us as He makes us,
then walks with us silently out of the night.

​

These are the words we dimly hear:

​

You, sent out beyond your recall,
go to the limits of your longing.

Embody Me.

​

Flare up like a flame
and make big shadows I can move in.

​

Let everything happen to you: beauty and terror.
Just keep going. No feeling is final.
Don’t let yourself lose Me.

​

Nearby is the country they call life.
You will know it by its seriousness.

​

Give Me your hand."

-Rainer Maria Rilke
