Christian Contemplation.

Liam Ó Comáin

(With thanks to JS.)

Contemplation
Is an awareness
Of the love of God,
A love coming to us
As a human love in Jesus.

The word comes from the
Word ‘temple’- the latter
Being a place where one can
Stand in the middle and observe
All at once.

Thus, Christian Contemplation is
A gaze of faith, fixed upon Jesus.
