The Door Opens!

"And as you sit on the hillside, or lie prone under the trees of the forest, or sprawl wet-legged on the shingly beach of a mountain stream, the great door, that does not look like a door opens," (Stephen Graham)Suddenly, the birds sing, the snow is falling lightly, as the sun rises over the hills of Indiania and I am once again captured by a vision that is even beyond what I can take in through the senses of this body. My soul sees beyond the creation to the One who creates. And there behind the veil of creation stands the Creator. He is calling. Yes He whisphers me forward into the Life. Lost, lost in the singing, the snowing and the illumination of the rising sun, I step forward into the Presence of the One that is closer than I could have ever imagined.There is a door that opens in this present moment, it opens up into the Kingdom of God. That great door, opens into eternity. It opens beyond time. The incarnation of Christ opened and is that door. The Word became flesh, and the door of eternity was opened.Through creation the Creator comes! These moments of awareness are those moment that I catch glimpes of the eternity into which I have been born. Oh, the joy that fills my soul! Oh, the hope that floods my heart. That not only I, but all will see beyond the veil!
