WHAT WOULD JESUS SAY?
When he & his wife arrived at the Officer’s
side they had no idea if the gunman was
nearby In his minds eye what remains of
the scene: blood & pink petals from an
overhanging cherry tree (not poetic license)
He said he would do the same thing again
Most definitely A local woman locked in her
home for 30 hrs. said: He made me afraid and
I want to see him afraid Across the sea the Pope
& 2 Presidents plant an olive tree
So where is the dis-connect? On Saturday I asked a
20 yr. old what he thinks of our constant killing sprees
He said: We need another enlightenment It seems that
it is time for the God who ever dies and is ever re-born
to make another appearance
Unless that was him lying amidst the blossoms Or might
he have been one of the 796 babies in Ireland dispersed in a
field next to a nunnery? Could be. Some earthquakes happen
in slow motion 22 to 34 miles inside of the Earth yet the re-
alignment is epic
If he is on his way and arrives on a day when most of us are in
lockdown will anybody know he’s here? Or will he be as lost to
us as the mangerbornstranger from the east? the burningbush
desertrecluse? the boyinthebohditree?
Probably.
