we’re educated
to question, wonder
examine critically

no longer fearing
hidden truths
behind sacred words

I’m learning
to love compassionately
to accept
what I don’t understand
~
wide open
my heart, my eyes
acknowledging
my blindness

and that
is okay

I’m doubting my way to salvation

Liken this one a lot!! just so long as you get there…. 🙂 I’m curious tho, what hidden truths have you found behind sacred words?? I find a lot of the time, the sacred words are others, and not so sacred…
council of nicea
consensus of interpretation?

twenty one books

seeking answers
discerning
spirituality from organized religions

maybe
our true faith
involves
accepting ambiguity
and
a little mystery ?
looking to the clouds
for the rain
falling in our hearts
living words sprout leaves
that turn with the seasons
accepting
doubts

finding clarity in
clouds
does one need god to find salvation?
…and, what is it that we need to be saved from?

questions
Doubting my way to salvation – that’s a good way to describe it! I’m doubting too, but I discover more that way, use my own mind instead of another’s mind. 🙂
