"beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God..."
interwoven we are;
different gifts, different faces;
blending together, not perceiving
where one stops and the other starts
seeing God through others' eyes,
we taste this mystery;
diversity finding its sweetness
in the unity that enfolds us
pieces of the same puzzle;
unique threads in a similar tapestry;
bringing forth wholistically
one body from many parts
the Spirit's unifying power;
being made new together;
pulling together the fragments
that by all rights should be left distinct
where is God?
where must i go to find him?
to arms of my brothers,
in the eyes of my sisters
he speaks to us;
gently wooing us from afar,
promising to transform us
through the lives of his people
working in the hearts of each of us,
powerfully, yet uniquely
he bears our burdens
through the love of his loved ones
may we be one as we seek his kingdom

Dang, I can't even spell "particularly".
And for something totally unrelated:
Laxative.
That was the word we were looking for last night.

"the one and the many"......in Trinitarian perspective.
Promise. Such a grossly overused word today. It means virtually nothing in society. But with God. Ah, with God a promise is everything. The promise of His love, the promise of His Son, the promise of Resurrection and the promise of return. Sweeter yet the promise of His constant presence in our lives as we await that return. How joyous it is to seek His kingdom, together, in unity, all sharing the presence and hope that is Christ. He has never failed us. He never will. Promise.
