Openings … Secret Thoughts

 

Secretly I think those thoughts,

Arriving on trains laden with baggage,

from years gone by or stations ahead,

too many directions and not enough tracks.

Some lead to a country called Peace.

 

“nothing secret that will not be known and come to light”

Gospel of Luke

Openings … Prudence

 

Oh Prudence, I think I knew you before I understood you.

Like knowledge unknown, I practiced your art,

At times well, others badly,

not knowing that it wasn’t a game of good or bad.

But how my life is lived.

 

“the master commended that dishonest steward for acting prudently.”

Gospel of Luke

Openings … Invulnerable?

 

The strangeness of invulnerability,

Hermetically sealed … a presence within,

peaceful and serene,

seemingly undisturbed, or undisturbable.

Following His will, wherever that leads.

 

“He said to him, “Follow me.”

Gospel of Matthew
