Abandon yourself to the Beloved,
draw closer and closer to Love.
For when you dwell in peace within
Love's heart,
and know the Divine Spirit in
your own heart,
You become as nothing, yet
all things are yours.
As you radiate the healing love of
your inmost Being
into a suffering, scarred, yet
ever-sacred world,
Offer grateful praise from the Chalice
of your heart
to the One who loves through you.
~ Nan Merrill, from her interpretation of "Psalm 119" in PSALMS FOR PRAYING: AN INVITATION TO WHOLENESS
