Yesterday we visited Grace Cathedral at the top of the highest
hill in the center of San Francisco. Cathedrals
give me hope. They are testaments to our
best nature, our greatest longing for meaning and our desire to reach out to
The Devine. It is mans one way in which
he still drives a stake in the ground to sincerely declare, “i Believe! only by
faith, but i Believe.”
By Devine decree our route out of town lead us through one of
the poorest sections of town. The
streets where grimy and long abandoned and humans in all manner of
sorrowfulness filled these byways, the hurt and wounded left for dead. It was a great reminder that the stone
building atop the hill was long abandoned as The Temple and replaced by Christ
with “Do you not know that you are
God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in you?” for the sole purpose of
hearing, 'I tell you the truth, when you
did it to one of the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were doing it
to me!'
