Dreaming of a 'New Faith' (Vol 2 No 33)
Dreaming of a 'New Faith' (Vol 2 No 33)
We seek a faith community,
One which promotes inquiry,
And which eschews rigidity,
Yet opens to the Mystery.
For God cannot be held inside
The thoughts and words that we provide;
Nor in our creeds which can divide;
Nor dogma that is glorified.
But dreams can challenge and correct;
Can prompt us question and reflect;
And with sincerity respect
The other faiths which some reject.
Our common dreams can be the seeds
To grow new truths a new age needs;
Our dreams can quash divisive creeds
From which exclusiveness proceeds.
Our common dreams can then ignite
Flames which can burn with wisdom’s light;
And then responding with delight
Uncover more divine insight.
