Judge Not the Tree

“You judge according to the flesh; I judge no one.” John 8:15

Dear Brothers and Sisters, Release yourself from the bondage of judgement–judgement of yourself and of others. The Father judges no one; the Son judges no one; the Spirit judges no one. Since we have been made in His likeness and image, we are also not meant to judge.

Judgement is fruit of the tree of knowledge of Good and Evil.

“A bad tree cannot bear good fruit, nor can a good tree bear bad fruit.”

You are a Tree of Life, so there is nothing left to do but Live.

I Name the Darkness

I name the darkness,
and my chains
along with their power
fall to the ground
where they are trodden
underfoot.
Nothing hidden
will not be brought
into the light.
Nothing that is false
will not be burned up
in the Holy Fire
of Love.
O Divine, I am Yours
and You are mine.
I find myself
and there You are too,
You have been here all along.
You, a believer,
when I could not believe.

The Moon Walks

The moon walks
in faithfulness.
Returning,
renewing,
month after month
back to her place
of closeness
with the sun.
Each time she obscures
herself in darkness
from the eyes of the world,
her hidden nature
is bathed in the light
of that radiant star.
Though her way
appears inconstant
to those who live on the earth,
from the viewpoint
of the shining luminary,
a part of her
Always
reflects his glory.
