Meditation Workshop

I attended a conference in February, and took a number of workshops. I chose the meditation workshop because it filled an empty time slot.

Meditation Workshop

We closed our eyes for guided meditation:
the facilitator's voice began:
"No god I praise!  There is only
earth and sky, and smooth round stones...."

This is where she lost me!
My entire spirit rebelled.
"My God I praise!"  I formed
the words in my mind.
"My God who MADE the skies
and earth, and smooth round stones.
My God who made the laughing brook that
gurgles around those stones,
my God who thrust the jagged peaks
from the earth with his voice;
who breathed the winds,
and spoke the trees, and
scattered life in its myriad forms
across the earth -- My God!
My God I praise!"

Yes, I agree with both comments. Well, you're always bound to bump into a new-age, neo-pagan type from time to time. "My God who made the laughing brook that gurgles around those stones, my God who thrust the jagged peaks from the earth with his voice; who breathed the winds,and spoke the trees, and scattered life in its myriad forms
across the earth" These are beautiful lines here too Dallas. Pure poetry in motion my friend. Be good.

Your god could also be praised for your willingness to stand. Thank you for providing my morning inspiration.

There is no true praise except to the One who deserves it and no true meditation apart from Him. Beautiful and very uplifting poem.
