THIS GOODNESS OF GOD

by Sr. Barb Krakora

This Goodness of God is infinitely ours.

It is innate to every living being.

It is intrinsic to every living cell.

It is a Holy Presence within us.

 

This Goodness of God has limitless potential,

To erase evil,

To restore justice,

To transform lives.

 

This Goodness of God defies all reason.

It knows no boundaries,

It needs no rules.

It carries no baggage.

 

This Goodness of God is relentless,

In embracing the moment.

In refusing to hate,

In forgiving the past,

 

This Goodness of God invites conversion.

It melts a cold heart.

It heals a wounded soul.

It redefines us.

 

This Goodness of God dwells in our fragile forms,

Seeking only,

To Make God more deeply known.
