I am a wanderer. I would say that I am a seeker, but sometimes I have no idea what I might be seeking, so I will stick with wanderer. This blog is more a public journal than anything. I don't claim to have life figured out. I simply stumble from mystery to mystery, and share my reflections along the way. Sometimes I feel burdened, and trudge. Sometimes? Well sometimes grace breaks through, and its time to dance.

Ocean of God
With passion pray.
With passion make love.
With passion eat and drink and dance and play.
Why look like a dead fish
in this ocean of God?
― Rumi

It is Saturday
Saturday
my day
my day to sleep in a little (all the way to 7am!)
my day to catch up
my day
to let my soul catch up with my body
this Saturday day Lord
there is a lot to do
a sermon, hiding somewhere in my heart
and in my computer
trees to be felled
wood to be cut
so much to do
it is easy Lord to look at all that life brings and sighs
but Lord
this is the day that you have made
this day
yes, this very day
is your gift to me
Lord
help me to jump into this day with passion
may I greet my wife
(if she ever wakes up J
With passion
may I write my sermon
with passionate love for you in my heart
may my dear friend Josh and I cut wood
yes
with passion (is that even possible)
for this world
the day
this little piece of creation I live in
these people I meet
are all part of an ocean of
love and joy and happiness
are all
YOU
