Meditation for the Friday of the
Third Week of Lent:
Centre and Cross
All
things tend
towards
the
Cross,
knowing
or
unknowing,
yielding
or
unyielding.
The sacred centre
calls;
its eternal weight
beckoning our
soul sight
thither
until we finally
look
upon the
One
we have
pierced
and are
pierced
ourselves,
in turn,
nailed to the
tree truth
of our
broken being,
and
in that very
moment
born anew
in blessedness
where
we know
ourselves
both
whole and holy
in
His sight
once
more.
First Friday of Lent:
In silence
and
stillness
humble yourself
and enter
in
to the
Holy of Holies
where,
at the deep centre
of your heart,
Divine Love
dwells.
Once there,
anchor yourself
with the
stability of breath
and,
with quiet
tears
of true
knowing,
invoke mercy
from the
One
who IS
compassion
and
love.
For there,
lost in the
embrace of
the One
whose breath
holds
all things
in being,
you will touch
the fire
of
graced awareness,
and
slowly
be unmade
enough
to truly
become
what you already
are;
an Icon
of
Divine Light.
