102:2.3 It is difficult to identify and analyze the factors of a religious experience, but it is not difficult to observe that such religious practitioners live and carry on as if already in the presence of the Eternal. Believers react to this temporal life as if immortality already were within their grasp. In the lives of such mortals there is a valid originality and a spontaneity of expression that forever segregate them from those of their fellows who have imbibed only the wisdom of the world. Religionists seem to live in effective emancipation from harrying haste and the painful stress of the vicissitudes inherent in the temporal currents of time; they exhibit a stabilization of personality and a tranquillity of character not explained by the laws of physiology, psychology, and sociology.

No Need To Leap

An early, early start today.

A busy morning lights my way.

So, with an early start I can,

Fulfill all of my life’s demands.

Goals/demands in life occur.

We try to live, not just endure.

To accomplish things while living,

Gives our lives a truer meaning.

Finding meaning in your life,

Helps to conquer, not just strive.

Meaning gives your life rewards.

We have something we work towards.

Finding what God wills for you,

Gives perspective, called what’s True.

Finding Truth, helps you perceive

More of what you can believe.

By little steps, we do advance.

We’re learning how to do life’s dance.

More and more, we come to show,

The Love of God in how we flow.

An equanimity of mind

With God’s Spirit’s what we find.

A way of living that defines

The Love that is of God’s design.

Thank You, Mother/Father/Son.

The day has truly now begun.

We have appointments, yet to keep,

But time we have, no need to leap!
