chosen vessel
Mary’s womb
God’s Word spoken
“I want you”
here I am, Lord
Divine Mercy Chapel
after Mass at St Pius
Fr. Tom homily
moment of conception
how must it have felt?
Divine spark within her
flooded with Joy
Conchita’s great gift
to be one with Mary
spiritual incarnation
conception of Love
You made Yourself known, Lord
in the breaking of Bread
another epiphany
celebration of grace
my own revelation, Lord
Stevie’s class Mass
and it occurred to me
to act as if it’s all true
If I truly believe
You’re Alive in this Host
Lord God Almighty
in this small piece of Bread
if I believe this is True
my life must be changed
every thought every act
centered on Eucharist
believing You come to me
me, whom You’ve called
chosen to receive You
our hearts intertwined
God of the Universe
Creator Redeemer
how dare I believe
You’ve chosen and called me
I who am nothing
the blink of an eye
a puff of soft smoke
a drop in the sea
from the deep to a mountaintop
heart racing with joy
want to tell the whole world
it’s all true – He’s Alive!
stay with me, Lord
my heart aches to receive You
how could I live
without knowledge of You?
so here I am, Lord
here in the chapel
I’ll kneel for a while
before I must leave
enter my heart, Lord
please be at home there
I’ve prepared it for You
as best I know how
swept it and cleaned it
emptied the closets
scrubbed it and shined it
did all I know how
come Lord, live in me
my time’s running out
is it my 11th hour?
may I spend it with You…
