Help Us Be Grace Cathedral

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!'
