I have come to those who think upon me
I was found among those who seek after me
you hearers, hear me
You who wait for me, embrace me.
and do not chase me from your sight.
Do not be ignorant of me in any place or
time; watch, and wait.
Do not be ignorant of me.
For I am the first and the last
I am the honored one and I am the scorned.
I am the whore and the holy one.
I am the wife and the virgin.
I am she whose wedding is great,
and I have not taken a man.
I am the mother of my father
and the sister of my husband,
and he is my son.
I am the incomprehensible silence
and the idea often remembered.
I am the voice of many sounds.
and the word that appears in many forms.
I am the sounding of my name
For I am knowledge and ignorance.
I am shame and boldness
I am shameless, I am ashamed.
I am strength and I am fear.
I am war and peace.
[and war has come because of me.
And I am an alien and a citizen.]
Hear me.
I am she who has been hated everywhere
and she who has been loved everywhere.
I am she whom they call Life,
and you have called Death.
I am she whom they call Law,
and you have called Lawlessness.
Do not be ignorant of me.

A SUVsaurus Bites the Dust. On 05/12/2006, General
Motors Corp based in Detroit, Michigan announced
that the 2006 model year will be the last for the
Hummer H1. June will be the last month for the
manufacture of the over-grown gas-guzzler which
gave its owner about 10 miles to the gallon. I would
guess that rising gas prices had something to do with
the demise of this monster. To read more about the

Abraham was an Immigrant: A Theological Reflection

His father, Terah was from the land of Ur of the Chaldeans

tell him to get out of his country and from his father's house to a land that God will reveal. Abram,
whose obedience is renowned, complied.
Many know this immigration saga of Abram, but there is more. For all was not well in the early
Promised Land - there was a severe famine and Abram and his family were forced to move
again, this time further south into the land.... For rest of reflection click here.
