The precious yesterday

The precious yesterday
                  was Love’s cup of
                                    blessings
                  filled with possibilities—
                  opportunities
to acknowledge the good
                                    expressed by Soul
                                    and Life and Mind.

                                    Some gifts were joyfully embraced,
                  but even gifts left unnoticed
                  were still near,
                                    still given,
                                    still blessing us all,
and still here, now, in
                  this God-filled day,
                                    waiting for its new witnessing.

And we are present
                  with eyes wide open—
                                    senses spiritual—
                  basking in our love of God
                                    and God’s love of us:
                                                      the love of Love,
containing all creation
                                    and pouring forth
                  blessings, blessings,
                                    blessings.

We will see,
                  we do see,
                  we witness,
these blessings lifting our lives
                  to joy unbounded.

This is the precious today.
