The Eye of Angels

S P A C E.

Flowing from the Creator.
Spreading within a single chamber
of His Infinite Being.

* * *

Finite beings.
Feeling their way.
Mariners on an obscuring Sea.
Seeking Home.
Longing for an almost-remembered Voice.
A Touch just beyond memory.

Children searching for their Father.
Within each a glow.
Some brighter than others.

Living candles lit with the flame
that blazes in Infinite Deity.
The Divine Presence
in each human being.

Every finite being a lighthouse
to those who will see.

* * *

Rays of divinity
springing from the children of Light.
Crisscrossing the dark spaces.
Creating two interleaved worlds.
One a realm of dark materiality.
The other a kingdom of bright spirit.

Finite beings endowed by the Creator
with the power to perceive either world.
Some choosing to look
upon the dark visage of despair.
Others choosing to perceive
the bright world around them
and the radiance of divinity.

* * *

Thou castest Thy Light into the darkness.
Thy Brightness guides me
in the desolate places of space.
Thy Love reaches out to me.
Thou art the Infinite and Loving Father.
All praise to Thee, Heavenly Father.
All praise and glory to Thee.

* * *

The universe delivered
into the hands of its creatures.
That which they believe
and allow to actualize in their experience
comprising that which they receive.

Believers in the divine Fatherhood
receiving in abundance.
Disbelievers inheriting that emptiness
in which they ultimately believe.

The universe a celestial dandelion,
each luminous filament attached
to a shining child of Destiny.
In the dark spaces between,
the crying multitudes who choose to behold
only darkness and death.

Survival given into the hands of finite creatures,
subject to their own choosing.

* * *

Oh Father of Lights,
Thou sharest with Thy children
the experience of self creation.
Under Thy guidance
I construct my eternal self.
I ascend in Thy universe mansions
as Thou biddest me.
Thou art my purpose for being.
Forever shall I serve and praise Thee.

* * *

The Infinite Person omnipresent.
Immanent in each being.
Revealing Himself to and through
the finite children of his indwelling.

Bright network of divinity.
Living ladder.
Universal family.
Each person revealing God
to the others.
Each manifesting the Infinite.
Defining, through their responsiveness
to the Divine Urging,
what God shall be in the finite.
Bringing God to one another.
Ministering as Him.

* * *

Archangels turning faith-tuned eyes
upon the Father Presence in His Son.
In turn exemplifying Him
to the worlds on high,
by living lives of divine service.

Seraphim beholding the Divine Countenance
in the mortals of their guardianship.

Celestial and terrestrial beings alike
gazing with faith vision
upon the Paradise Father in their fellows.

Mortals on the spheres of time and space
accepting the divine leading.
Living as they judge that He wishes of them.
Detecting the Creator Immanence
in all ages of time.
In multitudinous religions.
In prophets.
In teachers.
In worshipers of God.
Accepting the challenge to perceive
the good and the true as the real.
Daring to see with the eye of angels.
Recognizing spiritual living in their fellows
even in the presence of imperfection.

Universes teeming with beings
engaged in knowing God
and revealing Him to others.
Their summation the emerging portraiture
of that aspect of the Infinite Being
that can be reflected into the finite.
Their shared experience factualizing
the projection of Divinity
into time and space.

* * *

Oh God of Infinity,
I worship Thee.
Praise Thy Holy Name.
Even though Thou shouldst not raise me up
in that bright day of Eternity,
which I know that Thou shall,
shall I praise Thee.
For Thou and Thy judgements are perfect.
Thy Desire is the desire of my soul.
Praise Thee forever.
