I BELIEVE IN GOD-NESS

from I PRAY ANYWAY: Devotions for the Ambivalent

—Do I believe in God?
'Goodness' only knows
I believe in God-ness
I am totally open to mystery
God is not knowable
How we create language for the divine changes
We live in a paradigm shift for all things spiritual
Things fall apart before a new form emerges
We are caught in-between
New language and thought is emerging
The sacred continues outside of time and our paradigms
I hang on waiting for the next wave of knowing—


My thinking, my reflections all seem trite to me.
My wrestling with all things spiritual  is a luxury
My book is sacred lite
And yet I will turn for guidance
Into silence
Should I let this book die??
