Saturday is Prose & Poetry Day here on the blog, a time to take a moment once a week to relax the mind, open the heart, and access the soul through the gift of prose from one of the many books of The New Spirituality, and through the poetry of m. Claire, author of the forthcoming volume, Openings.<\/em>
\nThis week’s prose…an excerpt from Communion with God<\/em>…
\nNow I come to tell you again that this is what is true:
\nLove is unconditional. Life is unending. God is without need. And you are a miracle. The miracle of God, made human.
\nThis is what you have wanted to know all along.
\nIt is what you have always known in your heart, and what your mind has denied. It is what your soul has whispered to you time and time again, only to be silenced by your body, and the bodies around you.
\nYou have been asked to deny Me by the very religions that would invite you to know Me. For they have told you that you are not Me, and I am not you, and that to even think so is a sin.
\nWe are not one, they say, but rather, the Creator and the created. Yet this refusal to accept and know yourself as one with Me is what has caused all of the pain and all of the sorrow of your life.
\nI invite you now to a meeting with the Creator.
\nYou will find the Creator within.

\nWe truly Are
\nOne Nation, Of God,
\nIndivisible,
\nbecause We Cannot Divide The One Heart
\nno matter what We may say
\nor do
\nto One another.
\nBut let Me apologize to every God
\nfor what We\u2019ve done
\nin That name.
\nLet Me apologize to every People
\nfor what We\u2019ve each Believed,
\nas We took a Life.
\nLet Me apologize for every One
\nWho has forgotten
\nOneness.
\nFor Conquests.
\nFor Slavery.
\nFor War.
\nFor Conversions,
\nand Missions.
\nFor Rape
\nof Animals, Peoples, Planets.
\nLet Me apologize
\nfor The Innocent
\nwho
\ndon\u2019t even know
\nTheir Guilt.
