LOVE is perplexing. Holy week meditations

 Love is blindness ,I don't want to see

Won't you wrap the night around me?

Oh my love, Blindness.
U2

Perhaps my favorite group, if telling this to you because you grew up along side all those connection. The members,  each member approximately the same age l am. Mid sixties. Type, style of relationships engaged with.
Political journeys the Band members of U2 decide to share with those of us who Love the group U2. Commitment to ethical conduct around these issues. Spiritual awakening as they wrestling with same theology as our generation.
Awakening in a 'shout to follow'. Dumbfounded anger of wrestling with this God stuff.
Others they championed, some l knew personally.
Love is Blind, perplexing statement,because you see Love is blind, Love is confusing, Love can betray a person. Relationships end ,bitterness can become common Love disappears.
This of course is becoming a Sunday sermon. Hope is you'll see Love is not a movie popcorn feeling. Love is hard work
Sometimes Love in popcorn movie feeling ends and disappoints.
That's the bit about Love that's perplexing and Blinding.















We've entered holy week ahead for Jesus is perplexing, cruel, hate filled experience .Love that's perplexing, is part of holy week journey.

MAYBE WE WON`T MEET AGAIN

. . . she got a postcard in the mail
That just said Heaven,with a picture of the ocean and the beach
The simple words he wrote her
Said he loved her
How he'd hold her if his arms would reach
Wish you were here, wish you could see this place
Wish you were near,Wish I could touch your face
The weather's nice, it's paradise
It's summertime all year and there's some folks we know
They say, "Hello, "
I miss you so, wish you were here"
