The Jesus I read about in the Gospels, and indeed from the apostle Paul, lifts people up when they bow their knees, inviting them into a new way of being. In the scriptures, everything gets flipped on its head. As Jesus says in the gospel of Matthew: “the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve.”
Bringing perspective into the despair that l feel, Me Matthew spoke often, nature music, spiritual religious stuff, food, Can say really glad we disagreed about some issues.
I am still here sorting out stuff making plans. Legal stuff, Funeral arrangements.
You see Still wrestling, walking,
grieving with Jesus.
grieving with Jesus.
Others not so lucky.
If Musa sleeps tonight, if he is exhausted, resigned, or hungry enough, if the surveillance drones drown out the bombs dropping down the street – he will sleep the sleep of the righteous. “I pray the Lord my soul to take.”
