Thanksgiving 2019

The Lord is my light and my salvation whom shall I fear, means it is by Christ Jesus alone that God has brought me out of darkness and into His marvelous light that same light that leads and guides me by His grace

I look around this table. King kellermans- dickey macarthur- family- Desi and kyle- their. gift of callum- my gift of david - the blessing of my children and who they will be in this world- frank their second dad- matthew their super dad My brother- tanyas journey-- heck jeffs fire - lauras grace - me- ‎and here we are. 

Where there is suffering- we are here together- and where there is love - we are here together too

So let's raise our glasses- ‎as I read psalm 27 in grateful

“(A Psalm of David.) The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?” 

Happy thanksgiving

King James Version (KJV)

Sent from my BlackBerry 10 smartphone.

And I left my kibbutz in song- of the familiar of the journey of the moment- a dance of limber and stride....

Blind fast pace to the church already a quickly familiar route‎

And I arrive at the stone, I humble and weep I weep my own tears of salvation 

And the day has completely altered- 

I side my back and sit against the wall of the church- the sun blinding my sight- hundreds of people's coming and going- 

Jerusalem-

Old city‎

‎Kmg2019

The grand silence-

Is filled with waves crashing and rolling in and gathering height and distance and they spread out to reach forward

The grand silence - is opened by the light that emcompasses the rise of this fresh new day and it is 

The grand silence that has a texture of the fog and the haze and the illusion of this morning this moment.... time

I am not just arriving and I am not just departing I am already here

The grand silence is broken when I write those words and my body feels them and cries YES into the wind

I'm left with a whimper of grateful that I can know such love

Thank you dear lord how you craddle me all my life on my knees as a child in my room and here eyes closed in the

Grand silence

And the client thanks me for doing gods work and blesses me for what she has felt and been offered

It's not me- I want to scream jesus but I counselor her with the word of God and know not where she sits or holds any more than that- what religion she practices- she is in grief- that's the religion they all include.

So my heart clenches in emotion to receive that I must be in spirit for there is where the healing is offered- I am a healer when I reach into spirit who is a healer in me.

And I can just sit a low - solitary - ‎not in the world- so I don't know how to speak common- my books be but holy and my thoughts are only on the lord and his bounty my eyes only see

And ill have something to offer...

Amen

Peace swings the hammock and times hand spins as days flow thru the wind of this grand silence ‎- I watch as I attempt a break

Speakerphone pings out a number and ‎

I'm out of battery from all myconversations full of movement and grand gestures of words---

And I'm serving 26 for thanksgiving and I think NOTHING of it al all. I can chart and pack and plan and cook and order and service 26 with ease- 

It's the prayer and toast that will cause me some contemplation.

A good man's steps are ordered by the lord and may he delight is the love I step ever into thru and towards.

Amen
