We see the face of God daily, easily recognizable in a spectacular sunset or in a child's smile. And it also exists in less attractive presentations. Can we accept seeing God in the person of our "enemy"? If we can't, we are doomed to propagating lives of hatred and revenge. Only when we see the face of God in everyone and in all things will we be at peace within ourselves and, more importantly, enable peace to exist throughout the world.
O Great Mystery We give thanks for the natural world we see: All the Creatures, Stones and Plants Who show us how to be. We learn their lessos seek their truths, Return our loving praise, We honor the peace they show us, Which guides our human ways. We ask that we may become like them, Living in harmony, And deep within our heart of hearts, Know the Sacred Mystery.
