Two great bodies of water flow before me this morning, The Great
Tennessee River flows westward as a cold grey fog eases eastward above it. The earth proceeds daily along its course,
the great ancient one who has always been with us, before us, still abiding
kindly with us. It lounges as rivers,
yawns fall, awakes plants and seals all with its solid ever presence. The earth, one great kindness imagined and
spoken of as, “Let there be!” continues being and being well!!!
I will go to a funeral today, a loved one of a loved one. Kind words and sweet music will be heard and
then at long last, from the womb to the womb she will be interred. Into the earth she will be placed and the
procession will continue as the earth, our great earth, eventually carries all
safely in her bosom as she and all others await that great rebirth to
come. The earth will keep us all, “safe
and secure from all alarm” until the final alarm is sounded and “the dead in
Christ shall rise”, alive forever more.
