Holy Now

Unity Church of Clearwater

Leddy Hammock

“When I was a [child] … we would go to church and pay attention … and everyone would kneel and bow. Today the only difference is, everything is holy now.”

“When I was in Sunday school, we would learn about the time Moses split the sea in two, Jesus made the water wine. And I remember feeling sad that miracles don’t happen still. But now I can’t keep track, ‘cause everything’s a miracle.”

“It used to be a world half there, heaven’s second rate hand-me-down. Now I walk it with a reverent air, ‘cause everything is holy now.”

This morning, outside I stood and saw a little red-winged bird, Shining like a burning bush, singing like a scripture verse. It made me want to bow my head. I remember when church let out. How things have changed since then. Everything is holy now.
