.In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. All things came into being through him and without him not one thing came into being …and the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, the glory as of a father.s only son, full of grace and truth. John 1:1,3a, 14)
.Swisch-dub, swisch-dub, swisch-dub. the beautiful sound of my baby’s heartbeat resounded in the little cubicle as the Doppler instrument broadcast the miracle of love deep within my body. I longed for each of my children. Many women long for a lifetime and never get to hear this sound. It had taken eighteen months to get pregnant and I sang the song of Hannah, sure that I was infertile, begging God to give me a child. Tears were in my eyes as I listened to that beautiful sound. I can still hear it and it.s been over two decades!
Did you know that everything in our bodies makes a sound? Sonograms of various body parts create pictures of these sounds. When an organ is dis-eased, it makes sounds that are not in harmony with the rest of the organ. These sounds help physicians diagnose the presence of disease if not the cause. Actually, everything in the universe emits a sound.
For thousands of years, the mystics have taught that the universe was created with the utterance on the word .amen. or .Om.. Long before technology created the means to hear and see these vibrations, sages have proclaimed that all the sounds of the universe together make a song so beautiful that it could only be the sound of God. The very word .uni-verse. gives witness to this truth.
And that word, that very word became flesh. Flesh just like yours and just like mine. Flesh that burned and wrinkled and bled and got goosebumps. And that word is the light that is within you and within all whom God has created. That word vibrates throughout your body in a song unique to you.
When God hears your body.s vibrations, God hears a song as beautiful to our creators ears as a baby.s heartbeat is to his/her parents. You are a song that delights God.s ears. Only your body, just as it is, can sing this song.
