small words that came straight from my heart during silent contemplation

Sky

When I search for You, my God,
I look up to the skies.
I see wonderful clouds

When I search for You, my God,
sometimes I find only clouds
sometimes however
the clouds seem to tell:

Hans, why look up so high
Surely you can find our Creator
here so high in the sky,
It is much easier if look close-by

When I search for You, my God,
I start to look up high
I soon realize that You are there
but also  that You are near
now and here
every time, every where

All we have to do is connect.
All we have to do is tune in.

Miraculous blend

Beige brown
Soft and a wonderful leaf on it
The lazy chair in the garden

My muscles relaxed
A soft breeze on my cheeks
Sun rays gentle and warm

A little prayer enters my mind
Asking for inspiration
For guidance and peace

Creative forces, floating in air
Tainted with love from within
Miraculous blend

A vision of a wonderful world
A dream,...
No, it is real.

Way

When I withdraw from buzz and silently pray
I ask from deep within to find God's way
Then, my mind is filled from high above
Sublime thoughts of unconditional love

The little key

A small prayer
for kindness
for love

A soft longing
for affability
for friendship

A discrete desire
for compassion
for empathy

A simple want
for tenderness
for care

A minute search
for a smile
for a wink

Soul was praying,
longing, wanting
searching

A little softness
A little silence
A small key

A small key
to open the heart
A bit of silence

A gush of love
of kindness, of friendship
of big compassion

A huge stream
never ending
an open heart

An ocean of bliss
flooding the world
engulfing my soul

Silently gushing
quietly flooding
softly engulfing

A little prayer
A little longing
A little search

The key is never far away.

Free of fear

Please free us of the preachers of doom
Please free us of the preachers of fear
Please free us of the preachers of hate
Please free us of the preachers of hell

Our Creator is the most Gracious
No need to preach doom
Our Creator is the most Forgiving
No need to preach fear
Our Creator is the most Gracious
No need to preach hatred
Our Creator is the most Forgiving
No need to preach hell

Let us learn how to love
Love, love, love
Let us learn how to thank
Thank, thank, thank

If we love love love
If we thank thank thank
No need to preach fear and hell
No need to preach doom and hatred

Many bits to share

small prayer based on my latest "soul sprinkle"

Today,
I want to pray
that tomorrow
I can share
with as many people
as possible,
as many bits
as possible
of that tremendously
amazing love
and that tremendously
amazing kindness
that was placed
in each of our hearts
the moment we were born.

Somehow i believe
that every time we share
one of these little bits,
something magical happens:
this small bit makes
a small change in this big world
a small change that may live on
for more than hundred years
beyond our own death
and who knows, well
into eternity...

True nature


This is a small prayer
for all people
in this big world
to become aware
of our true nature
which is love
which is kindness
which is compassion
which is peace
which is harmony.

A small prayer
for all of us
to become aware
that only a life
filled with our true nature
is THE source of
true happiness

Help me, my God,
Help all my friends
all my family
all my collegues
all my neighbours
and all, all others
in this big world
to love, be kind, compassionate
and be an instrument of
Your peace and harmony
