Experience God

Some know God thru ritual,
Some thru 'the Word, '
Some thru what they've heard.

Some know God by prayer,
Realize he's not just there,
But inside - right here!

Some feel God in a smile,
Or in the warmth of a hug,
Some feel God by crying,
He's nearer then, no denying.

Some hear God in music,
A rock song or ancient hymn,
God seems closer - not so dim.

Some reach God through thinking,
Philosophy and reasoning.
Supreme Intelligence welcomes
Logic and questioning.

Some feel God through sport
Or dance or play -
Physical pleasure makes our day!

Some experience God thru work,
Productivity, creativity,
The satisfaction you receive
Is meant to be.

Some sense God via spirit,
His immersed in ours,
Lifts our mundane lives
Above celestial stars.

God reaches us thru all these means,
The Creator is all in all,
And always on call.
