Having Fun Yet?

A. Unabashed Pacifist:

It’s gone bankrupt, so how about a bailout from war?

B. Unabashed Christian:

Holy One,

Even if we turn to you only when all else fails, I’d say that’s okay. I might wish and choose to turn to you sooner, but there is a lot to be said for trying to do things for ourselves. In addition, turning to you at last is certainly better than not turning to you at all.

Do you ever then put people on hold? Or perhaps say, “I’ll get back to you?” I don’t think so. But then, I think of you not as last hope but as best hope. In the end you will understand, you have considered all the evidence and can discern truly and fairly how my life stands up in terms of authenticity and integrity. You comprehend the struggles, mitigating circumstances, and achievements. And yours is the opinion that matters – at the last. I can live with that.
Amen

C. Un-quoting Jesus:

“Are we having fun yet?”

[He liked to party, but nobody recorded Him asking this question. Too bad.]

D. Blog: A Haiku

When this life is over
I’ll have no complaints
I’ve had a total blast.
