Candles have been lit in a room of seventy-two
my yoga mat is weaved from recycled flexi-jute
I am a wisp of silence in this doctrine old and new
seated in my soul, I am rendered mute
TAKE ME TO NIRVANA * TAKE ME TO NIRVANA
Diving into waterfalls of paradise, I'm cold
beneath a sky of midnight hue transcendently I'm yours
serenity, tranquility as every breath unfolds
I'm a temple made for you in this Elysian field of gold
TAKE ME TO NIRVANA * TAKE ME TO NIRVANA
In this peaceful state of freedom without roam
I sit chilled, frosted, frozen, I am Flame
One bougie of rushlight I am pleasantly at home
In this paschal candle without name
TAKE ME TO NIRVANA * TAKE ME TO NIRVANA
GREAT STYLE, MYSTIC. GOD'S MARVELOUS LOVE PERMEATES THIS WORLD WHICH HE ALONE CREATED AND SUSTAINS. IN IT WE FIND SO MANY DIFFERENT WAYS IN WHICH PEOPLE ENJOY THEIR GOD-GIVEN RIGHT, THAT IS THEIR FREE WILL... TO 'CONNECT' WITH HIM. THOUGH I MIGHT NOT AGREE WITH MANY...I RESPECT THEM ALL. I, PERSONALLY, AM NOT 'HOME' YET. 'HE' HAS WILLED THAT I CONTINUE TO WALK THIS PLANET UNTIL THAT PREORDAINED TIME WHEN HE WILL TAKE ME TO THAT PREPARED ETERNAL PLACE, WHICH AT TIMES THROUGH FAITH...IS GLIMPSED. HOWEVER, ON THIS JOURNEY I DO LOOK FORWARD TO THE TIMES WHEN WE 'CONNECT'...SOMETIMES UNEXPECTEDLY, SOMETIMES DELIBERATELY THROUGH PRAYER...AND THERE IN HIS PRESENCE HE MIRACULOUSLY STRENGTHENS ME, IN EVERY WAY, TO PRESS ON. MY MOTHER WAS METHODIST, I WAS CATHOLIC(HAD A CATHOLIC GODMOTHER)AND MY DADDY WAS BAPTIST. I AM TODAY A CHRISTIAN WHO IS TOTALLY IN LOVE WITH OUR 'ONE TRIUNE GOD', SO THERE YOU HAVE IT(SMILE). THANKS FOR SHARING, MY FRIEND. LOVE, BLESSINGS AND FAITH...HIS+INSPIRATIONS

Loved this gem. My place on earth I go to is deep in nature because it cleanes me from all debrit and reminds me how close to the Creator we are with His compassion and ever evolving works..It's an incredibly beautiful treasure on earth.
Delightful except for the chill. I would think a state of being like this would be very warm like a hot humid evening in Houston. But I guess you're talking about chilling in a way that is more metaphoric.
One time went on a tour by my host in Bangladesh, he pointed to a road that told me that it led to a "jute factory" that employed 100,000 workers. And I suppose after a hurricane destroys all those jute houses, a lot of jute is recycled and sent overseas. Cool.
He Keeps Me is a devotional journey of revelation and insight birthed out of prayer.Searching the Word of God revealed the many ways that He has kept me and continues to keep me. Each day is an opportunity to recognize that God is mindful of you, eve
