I Discover Holiness In Everywhere And Everyone.
There are certain places I visit where the presence of God feels especially near, places that feel holy. These may include churches and other houses of worship, shrines, favorite places in nature—any destination where I become vividly aware of the divine presence is holy ground. I remember these words from the “Prayer for Protection” by poet James Dillet Freeman: “Wherever I am, God is.” The divine presence, I know, lives within me. It is the true essence of my life and of every life. Today my understanding expands. I discover the divine presence all around me and find holiness everywhere. Every person is a holy being. Every place is holy ground.
Then Jacob woke from his sleep and said, “Surely the Lord is in this place—and I did not know it!”—Genesis 28:16
