While I'm at Iona this week exploring the wildness of God's love found in liturgy and landscape, I want to invite you to a special service Sunday where we'll be baptizing Embry and we'll be weaving together the wisdom of an award-winning children's book, "Old Turtle and the Broken Truth" with the wisdom of the scripture for our lives. And our scripture is from Luke 19:36- 40 (look it up), traditionally read on Palm Sunday. It offers a picture of how even nature witnesses with us to the way of Jesus, or in spite of us.
"We're good at planning!
Give us a task force and a project and we're off and running!
No trouble at all! Going to the village and finding the colt,
even negotiating with the owner is right down our alley.
And how we love a parade!
In a frenzy of celebration we gladly focus on Jesus
and generously throw our coats and palms in his path.
And we can shout praise loudly enough to make the Pharisees complain.
It's all so good!
It's between parades that we don't do so well.
From Sunday to Sunday we forget our hosannas.
Between parades the stones will have to shout because we don't."
–Ann Weems
My flight is scheduled to arrive Saturday night at Logan. Prayers for traveling mercies are appreciated. See you Sunday.
