Oh How I Wish … I could just write Summer memories…and trust me there is a mountain of them…and laugh as I did so. Beach, Camp, Camp, Golf, School, Swimming pool, Sprinkler, Golf, Golf, Camp, Travel…
Add a Deep Sigh
Or a needed Cleansing BREATH
This summer with some of the above also carries with it a deep sadness and a touch of fear. The numbers of mass seemingly random shootings across this country make me angry/sad and feeling helpless. I have written my Representatives! I have read theories. I have tried in some way to make sense of it. BUT there IS NO SENSE. Pick up a g** and find a crowd.
Another deep breath.
So, right now, I write.
The morning haze from a humid night put the dawn in pastels
The singing birds woke me in a perfect way to join the day
A small wonder (my grandson) woke without the fever from yesterday
I began with prayer… O God Open My Lips and My Mouth Will Declare Thy Praise
I realized it’s been 45 years since I graduated from Divinity School
42 years spent in active ministry.
I live in peacefulness
I live in grace
I trip over mercy
Deep Sigh
Time for Action! Now!
God Abides
