Small Things
Luke 21:1-4
He sees
the smallest movement—
a cup of coffee,
a single coin,
washing dishes
and sweeping floors,
a word in the silence
offered in love
by an undivided heart.
Unnoticed by humans,
angels sing.
He sees.
The Time Will Come
Luke 21:5-37
--when my degrees, publications, and progress reports will dissolve into
air
--when the nose of the apostle will grow long
--when pandemics, tsunamis, tribal migrations, and the extinction of the
bald eagle will crash the media networks
--when we will be brought before the House judicial committee and accused
of crimes against humanity.
Don’t be afraid, he tells us illogically.
Get ready.
Redemption is coming.
