For the Harassed and the Helpless

Jesus travels through towns teaching, healing, and proclaiming the kingdom. Moved by compassion for the crowds, He tells His disciples that the harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. He then appoints the twelve and sends them out with authority over unclean spirits and disease to freely proclaim the kingdom of heaven.

“Forgive me but I’m just not in the mood! I’m not in the mood to talk about the theological significance the buildings held or why Jesus sat at the Mount of Olives or the disciple’s gazing at the majesty of the building or the actual size of stones and how difficult it must have been to carry one.”

“The evil is real, but I do not understand it. However, since I shook off the idea that I must wage a war against it, I have not encountered it. It has no life-giving breath, but only a stink in the air. Maybe a good candle and a centering prayer will help create an emotional receptivity to God as king rather than a panic-driven election of a false god.”
