" As I Sit Considering..."

As I sit considering, these things I begin to ponder
And in this mood of pondering, my mind does not, wander
Spiritual consolation goes beyond all worldly delights and bodily pleasures
The delights of this world are worthless, but those of the Spirit, beyond measure
For those alone come from virtuous deeds and are infused into the pure of heart
God's grace does not flow into us because we attempt to set ourselves apart
But rather because we try to become a part of all things through meditation
By reflecting on the heart of others and enjoying another's perception
By becoming a part of our fellow man we become quite familiar with ourselves
We choose to see ourselves as others see us , and no one else
God is indeed beneficent, in granting the grace of consolation
But it is man who does ill in neglecting the lesson of patience
And as I sit considering, my friends and all they've taught me
I fall to my knees, and thank them all
For simply being my friend.......

Such a wonderful poem and delight. Your writing flows so smoothly along and becomes so wonderful to visit with you through it . I like the relational way your meditation and prayer takes and your responsiveness to what is truly transpiring now in your life and experiences spiritually with God and others. I delight in you and your life's unfolding and God as Father's part in fulfilling your life's purpose and joy. I feel close to you dearest Tony and I thank Father God for all this and your sons having you coming forth this way as a fruitful and meaningful legacy.how this one must please your praying Mom as well and your siblings.
