every
day do something
that
won’t compute. Love the Lord.
Love
the world. Work for nothing.
Take
all that you have and be poor.
Love
someone who does not deserve it…..
…..Practice
resurrection

Lord
we
so badly want it all to “line up”
we
so want to have everything
ordered
under
control
we
so badly want all the questions answered
and
all the loose ends tidied up
but
Lord
once
quick glance at your life
shows
us
that
it
just
doesn’t
work
that
way
at
all, at all
when
we sit down in the living rooms of our souls
and
gently spend time at your feet
give
us the peace and love
and
yes, joy we need
to
live the questions
to
laugh at what we will never understand
to
reach out in love
to
be generous
to
practice resurrection
