lenten journal: “you are the light of the world”

    Ginger preached from the lectionary passage this morning. Here’s what I brought home.

    “you are the light of the world”

    I know were talking
    about the difference
    between daylight
    and dark however
    you of all people
    ought to be able
    to make room for
    a little poetic license
    I know about the dark
    but today when I
    heard your words
    I thought of those
    who claim to speak
    for you in public
    but they spew stones
    and throw their weight
    around to do damage
    and your familiar call
    had a new ring:
    you didn’t call us
    to be the heavy

    Peace,
    Milton
