Did You Know - Cole Arthur Riley
Did you know
that birds do not land
because they are tired?
They know
and have always known
that their liberation depends
on their ability
to recall the ground.

Big Lesson - Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer
Today it feels so simple- we are here to take care of each other. As if soil could forget it is here to feed the trees. As if trees could forget they are here to feed the soil. How could anything ever get in the way of generosity? How could we ever greet each other with any words besides, How can I help you? As if light could forget it is here to illuminate, And dark is here to help us heal.
Before Jesus Was His Mother - Rev. Alla Renee Bozarth
Before supper in the upper room, breakfast in the barn. Before the Passion Feast, a feeding trough. And here, the altar of Earth, fair linens of hay and seed. Before His cry, her cry. Before His sweat of blood, her bleeding and tears. Before His offering, hers. Before the breaking of bread and death, the breaking of her body in birth. Before the offering of the cup, the offering of her breast. Before His blood, her blood. And, by her body and blood, alone, his body and blood and whole human being. The wise ones knelt to hear the woman's word in wonder. Holding up her sacred child, her God in the form of a babe, she said "Receive and let your hearts be healed, and your lives fulfilled with love, for this is my body, this is my blood."
