The Cathedral of my Heart

The Cathedral of My Heart

In the cathedral of my heart,
Where I meet You Lord,
We walk.
Sunlight illuminates
The stained glass windows
Showering each surface
With Your prism.

Each window – a history,
The cinema of my life.
We talk.
With their colors, their demarcations-
Choices, decisions.
You were honored here
You were avoided here.

Vibrant hues ablaze
Through this interior cathedral
We examine.
You draw me close, Lord,
A closer look for me, not you.
Broken here. Repaired here.
Whole now.

In the cathedral of my heart,
Where I meet You, Lord
Alone.
Have mercy on me,
A sinner.
Clean my heart, fill my heart.
Allow Your holiness
To resonate
In the cathedral of my heart.
