Where is God?



In this remarkable book:

A formerly homeless 
wise man
is annoyed at people who go to 
Bible study all the time
and
never get around to a
"Bible Do"

He asks:
"Mr. Ron, all those white folks
be invitin us
to their Bible Studies.
How come
none of 'ems
invitin
us to their Bible doins?"

Then,
like Rumi,
Who sung, roughly,
that he
looked for God
in the Mosque
and couldn't find Him
looked in the synagoge
couldn't find Him
looked in the Church,
still couldn't find
Him
then he
looked in His hearrt
and there He was
All Along

This wise formerly homeless man,
named Denver
says:
"Everybody's looking for
God
everywhere on the outside.
He ain't in no
book,
He ain't in no
preacher
He ain't in nothing or no out
outside.
You got to go inside
'cause that's where
God
is --
in the
deepest place
inside you."
