In the Present, the Eternal Presence

(See http://recoverydailydose.blogspot.com/2016/05/meditating-on-meditation.html)
4  The wicked are not so,
But they are like chaff which the wind drives away.
5  Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,
Nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.
6  For the LORD knows the way of the righteous,
But the way of the wicked will perish. ~ Psalm 1 NASB

Not so. Not like a tree beside water,
helpful, thriving, serving, prospering.
Roots play no part, hold to nothing,
allow fickle winds to capriciously scatter,
separated from normal, from comfortable,
isolated. These are the wicked, the self-centered,
the detritus. The blessed, rooted and steady
stand for inspection, for fulfillment, for completion,
ready to be in the presence. The eternal present.
Ready, finally, to learn what true meditation is.
And ready for the way of the wicked to perish
and for them to find recovery, sanity, and life!
