Our Viral Separation

​Upon reflection, what do I see?
All alone, a lonely me.
"The Coronavirus"
Has locked us in,
Giving the time to so reflect.
To meditate, to contemplate,
Upon one's life, and maybe even sin.
Giving us time to  think of the other,
Are you well?
Is there anything you might need?

To offer the gift
Of a kind and generous heart.
Especially now, as we're made to stand
At a distance,
And most certainly so apart.

And there before me as I write,
A special light, through the clouds appear.
Letting me know my Lord is here.
Bright and shining, a glowing form.
His very Presence, oh so near.
With a readiness to embrace His own.
His worried children He must see.

In the very midst of anxiety and fear, 
And yes wondering the Why?
He offers so, His gentle peace.
His message there before me.
The rays so lovingly placed in the sky.
Not to worry, not to cry.
Never alone, for you're with Me.
You're my child.
Can't you see?

Dear Lord,
I ask forgiveness.
For the weakness that I wear.
Surely I must know
Your love so sweetly given,
I should simply grateful be.
Here at home, with myself
But never all alone.
My loving God, always here with me,
Always, always here with me.

"I was blind, and now I see."

Thank you Lord.

Amen
