I do pray that Love will move me

I immediately recognize here and now 
that simply being within the body 
is a sacred action 

whereby I stand at the beginning 
of an opportunity to fulfill my duties and obligations
as a human being 

I have already in the creation of my cells 
and even the creation of my molecules and atoms 
been filled with sacred substances 
that were created at great expense 
by suns themselves. 

And all of these particles of being 
contain very fine energies 
that have done tremendous amounts of work 
to form a living community of individual tiny beings, 
all of which have come together to support me here. 

And so as I use the sensation 
that is given to me through grace, 
I cast my attention and my eyes down upon them 
and I give thanks. 

I give thanks in such a way 
that the thanks itself is organic, 
arising in the cells and this fine energy 

and I give thanks not as a gesture 
but as a sacrament 

and I open my heart and my soul 
and my mind 
my sensation 
and my feeling 
as though my inner arms were spread wide. 

And I offered myself to everything that flows in 
with abundance from above. 

And the sweet nectar, 
the milk and honey of being here alive 
begins to become more tangible.

It flows in right here and now, 
supporting my existence. 

And I acknowledge these great forces that flow into me from above 
with an equal amount of thanksgiving. 

I see that I am unequal to the task, 
the task of becoming human. 

And yet today, once again, 
as I come to this life 
and suffer my negativity and my foolishness, 
I will try again to become a human being. 

I will be still and hope that compassion is what moves me. 
I will be still and hope that kindness is what moves me. 

And as I am here within sensation in the midst of my helplessness, 
I do pray that love will move me.
