fragmented
scattered
bewildered
everywhere
but nowhere
knowledgeable
overly sophisticated
but nowhere
desperate world
deception rules
and many stray far from the Son
though he never strays from them
all he said...
all he did...
you either take him whole or
you don't take him at all
can not say he was
"an enlightened one"
and pick and chose at his words
then
truth would lose all meaning
love would falter
and lie
...cannot lie
the fear he came to take
would be reborn
but born of truth
we can't deny
(the Son)
and fear reigns
He said we'd suffer
for a little while
He said the lies would
flooding come
deception would rule
for a little while
and men would say peace
and dance over the massacre
with no grief
or shame
some with no feeling
at all
and
what is a little while
in the face of eternity

What we need & Hope for a tree cut down
...give us each day our daily bread...
and this bread really satisfies-
calms, heal, restores
sometimes it may come in the form of someone's prayer or kind word or deed
anything that causes us to return to the Source of abundant life
Once restored
comforted
we can love
***************

"How different would our lives be if we believed every single gesture
every act of faith or love or joy or peace or word of forgiveness
would multiply as long as there are people to receive it.
Our gift is not what we can do but who we are." -Henry Nouwen
