God Is In The Details

Dreams of Isis
by: Normandie Ellis

"All of creation bears the fingerprint of the Creator. In that all things are composed of spiritual fire, the soul of God is that all-encompassing light of the world; but the face of God is all in the world in its particlarity-the names of all its men and women, its cities and crossroads, its abundant flowers with their smells, shapes and colors, the songs of birds and the patterns of their feathers, the smells, tastes of its herbs, the textures of its innumerable grains of sand. When the Gothic architects built their cathedrals, they said that GOD EXISTED IN THE DETAILS. Likewise, did the pharaoh Akhenaten believe that his God manifested in all things"

Akhenaten:

How various is the world you have created
each thing mysterious, sacred to sight
O sole God, beside whom is no other.
You fashioned earth to your heart's desire,
while you were still alone,
Filled it with man and the family of creatures,
each kind on the ground,
those who go upon feet,
he on high soaring on wings,
The far lands of Khor and Kush
and the rich black land of Egypt...

And each eye looks back and beholds you
to learn from the day's light perfection.

O God, you are the sun disk of day
Over-seer of all creation-your legacy
passed on to all who ever shall ever be.
For you fashioned their sight, who percieve
your universe,
that they praise with one voice all your labors.
And you are in my heart...

Lift up the creatures of earth for your Son
who came forth from your body of fire.

Yes..
I am reminded..that the face of God IS IN THE DETAILS in all the various forms and styles of created beings.

With this in mind it becomes evident to recognize all the various points of reasonings, or MERIT, that each One brings to this Rastafari table. It is essential for each to speak from WHO they ARE..from WHERE they are..and from WITHIN each their own points of respective history. For it is here, within the magnificent details of creative existance, that LEGITIMIZE each EXPERIENCE to speak truth from the belly of one's depth..Where the multifasceted jewels of God are revealed within the divine details of who they are.

To all those who have come before, and to them that stand now, who contribute in so many ways from all that they are..in every form of flesh..action..and deed..truly are the embodiment of the Most High ..often times unseen..

give thanks!
