Grace...

 

Joe Garza

Grace, "my own efforts". 

'Sanctifying grace", the efforts of others. 

"Supernatural Grace", the Gods. 

I noticed in the Sacred Dances 

that the "Sanctifying Grace" 

of all our efforts 

carried my inner world up and out, 

gave me space 

between the waves of emotion to see more! 

What a gift. 

The gift of working together in harmony, 

seeing that we are all the same, 

we all struggle, daily, 

moment by moment sometimes - 

the urgency to know when that moment is, 

how I can become aware of the vibrations 

of the higher calling to me, 

asking me to transcend. 

Let go. 

Then when I do, 

it is pure joy, 

joy above emotion - 

Jesus on the sea.

Feeling that I AM in nature and nature is in me, 

no separation from creation. 

What a beautiful experience that is. 

And one by one 

to know that we all exist in that space, 

taking all the souls that participate 

up into the mist of the crashing waves, 

to begin again and again.
