Creation: An Invocation
by YaNi Davis
Inhale by exhale
Recognize that all creation is moving through you and
Around you
The hovering of the spirit just above you
Calling forth the fullness of your being
Calling forth the faithfulness you’ve cultivated -
Since being knit In your mother’s womb
We bring to remembrance an empty tomb
The cries of the women
The stillness of grief
We sit -in- the silence of everyday trauma and fear
Saying so long to the security of yesterday’s normalcy
Inhale by exhale
Hold your heart ever so gingerly
when you feel the pain arising in your body
Flow freely in the feelings that arise from a soul -
intricately connected to the Divine
Be still and remember that
I AM God
Be still and never forget that
I AM God
Be still and know that
I AM God
Creator of all things,
Infinite intelligence available for you-
Unconditional love poured out for you-
A body resurrected for you-
Inhale by exhale
Stand in awe of…
ALL Creation
All things new!
Thank you God for the sky. I look up to you.
Thank you God for the trees. I breathe you.
Thank you God for the water. I take you in.
Thank you God for the fire. I feel you.
Inhale by Exhale.
