Your spiritual destination is here

Elsa Dardie S. Dunlap

Originally published for the Christian Science Sentinel online on September 27, 2024

You’ve arrived; you’re not “getting there.”
There’s no future place to be,
just here and now.

Your being is one
with spiritual presence, one Love.
There’s only Spirit’s infinity—no time;
you’re in your forever place.

Denounce the “When,” “If only,” “Soon.”
You are where you need to be: here
in the ever-present embrace of the Christ, Truth,

not needing, not praying for something.
It’s all yours now.

Heaven is here.
You live in God’s kingdom—
in the ever-present now—
proven, cherished.

We'd love to hear from you!
