the timeless immensity of being alive

The other James Lee Jobe, my father. 1922-1980.



 worship and praise

the service begins and a woman's voice leads us
and brings us together
she is slender in the pulpit 
slight
and the morning light streams in behind her
through the glass double-doors
music rises 
from the piano
from our voices
even from the earth below us
and we rise up too
together we worship and praise
together we rise
-james lee jobe





The real void is not the one you're looking at. It's the one you're looking from.
-Adyashanti




Like the sky at dawn, silent and vast, let my being merge in the timeless immensity of being alive. I am the universe, the universe is me.
-james lee jobe
