God, of your goodness,
Give me yourself, for you are sufficient for me.
I cannot properly ask anything less, to be worthy of you.
If I were to ask less I should always be in want.
In you alone, do I have all.

*Julian of Norwich (1342- c. 1416)

What is Heaven now,
except to enjoy Grace?
Is not eternal Life present now,
not merely a duration of moments?
If so, is not what we refer to as God
fully present now, here?
Why not then pray for God,
not merely something God can give,
but God, God Only?
Can anything else
satisfy our innate longing for Home?
