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.

Trees of Heaven, Seeds of Hell
You can't plant the trees of Heaven, ...
with the seeds of
Hell. "

It doesn’t matter
It does
Not
Matter
Whether you are trying to Make America Great Again
Or
Establish the Kingdom of God
It does not matter how you define yourself
Or your spirituality
You cannot create good out of evil
You cannot build greatness out of greed
You cannot create justice if you lust for power
You cannot create hospitality with fear
You cannot generate compassion out of judgement
We cannot create world of peace and equity
A world of love and justice
By insisting on our own way
The way to what is good
Is not merely paved with good intentions
But with good actions
And good hearts
With compassion and generosity
Equity and equality
Acceptance and love
There is no other way to make American Great
There is no other way to usher in the Kingdom
It takes sacrifice
And giving
Sometimes it takes dying
Always it takes love
