The greatest of these…is love.



I am convinced that God is trying to tell us something…

But maybe we are all too busy.!? Busy being busy.


Facing the day Racing the clock…and losing..


And we get on and challenge tomorrow. Sometimes


When we lose we beat ourselves up…and then


We beat other people up, and we have a hard


Time moving on cause we're challenged by


How we were conquered by yesterday…


The here+now can be a dog.


Sometimes it's your best friend..but sometimes it's


Super dis-obedient; doin it's own thing; not doing what you want it to do-a dog. So we


Disown the here+now. Consume ourselves with tomorrow+yester-year and in the


Process waste our lives…or maybe more


Than that…we miss what God is trying to say to us.


Here+now. And then…because we miss


What God is trying to say to us here+now


We let the here+now weigh us down.


We bend to fear, we bow to circumstance.


And then we start looking at ourselves.


Worry. Fear. Doubt. Shame. Hurt. Etc. Etc.


But God is trying to say something.


In everything. Through everything. With everything.


But in our haste. In our pre-occupation. In our comfort.


In our comfort-able-climate-controlled-culture we


Have perhaps missed/overlooked what is right in


Front of us; what is blaringly obvious; what all that was/and is/and is to come/is all about…


But then you see it. and you see it again.


And you see it again. and again. and it all seems


Too obvious. Too clear. And it all makes sense


But it makes no sense at all. Foolishness.


Even though it's messy. Painful at times. It's


All revealing the same thing. The one thing.


In everything. Through everything. It's clear.


If we choose to open our eyes to it. you can't miss it.


The greatest of these..is love.
