Credit Where Credit is Due

A. Unabashed Pacifist:

On the long walk to peace, we can’t afford to carry weapons.

B. Unabashed Christian:

Holy One,

Life, life, life, and more life.
You bring it into existence.
Life, life, life, and more life.
You nurture it toward its potential.
Life, life, life, and more life.
You allow it to choose what enhances or stifles it.
Life, life, life, and more life.
You encourage it to risk, grow, change, diversify.
Life, life, life, and more life.
Nothing can stop it, for life brings out even your potential. If even we abhor the thought of non-being, you will settle even less for hidden-ness, invisibility, obscurity, not being known.
I see you and know you everywhere in life.
Amen

C. Un-quoting Jesus:

“Watch this, guys. I’m going to do a number on the dude running the shell game by the camel traders over there.”

[That would have been awesome, but He never said it.]

D. Blog: A Haiku

Things have gone my way
So far this morning.
To whom shall I give credit?
