I come as your brother on this path of God’s Love. I wish to speak about gifts. You may know me from my works, most especially the book “The Prophet”. I had a gift of writing poetry and prose, my love of painting. Technically, I developed these gifts in many places, from many influences. My parents were Christians in Lebanon (where I was born) but I grew up in the United States, I also lived in France. I was influenced profoundly by the writings, the quatrains, of the Sufis, and Blake, and the Baha’i’s. The beauty of the parables of the New Testament informed my writings. But I tell you this, I always believed in the oneness of humanity in what I call “The Spirit”, the unity of religions.
My work was an amalgamation of many diverse paths. You can see the paintings, the drawings of Blake in mine and the form of Rodin, the Frenchman, and the illumination of Turner, to name but a few. So it is was the same with my writings. I was in no way a monk but in fact, I was quite a worldly man and yet, retreated into the depths of my soul. As the Sufis would say, I lived in the world but also not of it.
There are many gifts in this circle, many yet to be discovered, many evolving, growing. You can see through this lens, this Light of God’s Love that you possess. Therefore, whenever you touch another soul and you give of this Light and Love, that is the gift. It matters not the medium.
I shall come again with your permission. I thank this one for receiving. You are so blessed to have the guidance of the great ones who love you so, who inform so, who guide you in the Love of our Creator, in the oneness, every unique soul shining the Light in this world.
God bless you all. I am your brother and friend in the Divine Love. I am Khalil Gibran.
