ADVENT: REDIRECTING MY SPIRITUAL COMPASS

Advent: redirecting MY Spiritual Compass

Eyes deflected

recognize the illuminating grace

divinely embedded in the ordinary.

Ears tuned

engage the quiet spiritual voice within.

Palette flavored

 by the blessed sacrifice of Christ’s body and blood.

Hands outstretched

cultivate relationships that increase the spaces within the heart.

Olfactory cues of frankincense and myrrh

prompt reflections of a journey to the sacred past.

A patient internal incubation

creates a rising illumination in the womb

redirecting my spiritual compass.
