Daily Signet
At my worst moments, I live in the tank of what I think “they” must be thinking – the tank of second guessing, faltering in expression, anticipating without listening, jumping in necessitated by “shoulds.” At my best moments, I am inhabited by the rich manifestations, epiphanies of God through Delight. I seek those dips in the Jordan River where I baptize what I thought I should do/should be and raise up out of the waters with the divine delight dancing through me in winged thought and with a visceral knowing that I am a Beloved Son. For if there is a cliché out there, it is "God is within" and just because it is a cliché doesn't mean it's not true but it doesn't unleash itself, pierce the soul with its power until I experience in the heart of my heart, in the breath of my breath that I am Beloved and I am the Beloved and that the Spirit of Delight, enthusiasmos (meaning God drenched) is taking up its place in my consciousness both night AND day and it is dancing through me through my sights and insights, through my hearings and tastings, to my very core.
