Praying—with You—
is praying with the light of Love:
gratefully, meekly, in and with Mind;
it’s seeing Your wisdom-from-above,
watching with Love’s-eye view;
it’s thinking of and loving You and Yours.
Thus, with Your healing light,
we find that fearful, sad beliefs all cease,
for darkness can’t impede Your light.
Inspired and blessed, feeling beloved,
we then see everyone, and all, anew,
in this light-filled presence-of-Mind,
in Love’s irrepressible harmony:
this silently resounding peace. 

—Suzanne Goewert
