Beloved Grace

By sister-initiate Wonwilai Rakkandee, Munich, Germany





Dearly Beloved,


Beloved of all beings, Essence of all things,
And source of all creation.
My heart longs to be one with You.


I see You everywhere in all creation,
I meet You anytime in all beings,
I witness how You meticulously care for me,
And how You’re by my side from dusk 'til dawn.


But being with You is different.
Beloved, there’s a great difference.
Sitting beside Your feet,
  I discover the longing in my heart,
Being in Your presence,
  the essence of my nature grows.


Beloved how long will it be
, Til You next bless me with the honor of sitting
  at Your feet again?
The greatest wonder of all wonders
  is being at Your side.


Beloved, the Grace You envelop me with
  continues growing,
And I’m thankful each day
  for the Grace You give me.


There’s one thing I wish to say:
Wherever You place me in the universe,
be it Heaven or Earth,
The only thing I ask Is to be constantly
aware of Your presence around and within me.


Beloved,
bless me with Your Grace and let me
be conscious of You—I’m in You and You’re in me always.

      Thank You, my Beloved.

I love You, my true love.
