Guest guest Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 O Holy One, I ran through the fields and gathered flowers of a thousand colors--- And now I pour them out at Your Feet. Their beauty and their brightness shout for joy in Your Presence You created the lowers of the fields and made each one far more lovely than all the skill of man could design. Accept my joy along with theirs, this field of blossoms at Your Feet. Holy One as the wind blows through these flowers till they dance in the ecstasy of creation, send Your Spirit to blow through my being till I too bloom and dance with the fullness of Your life. ~~~ Ishpriya R.S.C.J. Page 223 (Praise and Thanksgiving) Earth Prayers From Around the World, 365 Prayers, Poems, and Invocations For Honoring the Earth. Roberts and Amidon, Harper Collins I saw a mighty and immeasurable marvelousness. It had such a fierce shine I could only behold it as if through a mirror. But I knew that within it was every manner of sweet blossoming, every manner of good aromas and lovely scents. It was to be enjoyed with unbounded delight. Here were the blessed, happy ones that moved God in their time on earth, stirred God with sincere striving and Just works. Now in all this marvelousness they can enjoy the sweetest ecstasy. ~~~ Hildegard of Bingen Page 127, Meditations with Hildegard of Bingen, by Gabrielle Uhlein Bear & company Publishing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
