A pathway for the Spirit

a channel, a wire, a vessel
in and out, through, out of us
a pathway for the Spirit
our bodies but vessels
gloves on the hands of God
our work here below
letting the Spirit flow
in and through us
poured out as a blessing
an offering of God’s love

quote attributed to Corrie ten Bloom,
“I have a glove here in my hand. The glove cannot do anything by itself, but when my hand is in it, it can do many things. True, it is not the glove, but my hand in the glove that acts. We are gloves. It is the Holy Spirit in us who is the hand, who does the job. We have to make room for the hand so that every finger is filled.”
