The cause of Love is Justice,
The cause of Justice is Equity,
The cause of Equity is Unity,
The cause of Unity is Wholeness,
The cause of Wholeness is Divinity,
And the cause of Divinity is Love.

If it is Peace you seek, then Love,
If it is Grace you seek, then Love,
If it is Mercy you seek, then Love,
For it is in Loving that we find Our Source
and, in so finding, discover our Beginning and Ending.
The only answer to the prayer,
". . . on earth as it is in heaven . . ."
is Love.

This Christmas devote yourself to the journey
of the One who comes and,
in so holy and sacred a passage,
Meet God
In Love.

Live the Hope - Embody the Joy

"Run, Hide, Fight"

      is what society is reduced to

     when, as a culture, we don't

     live justly, equitable and responsibly

     one-with-the-other.

When you believe you can crucify the Christ

     and you shut Christ in a tomb

     with your privilege, arrogance, and entitlement,

     the Gospel becomes muted and distant

     and others become angry, even ready to lash out.

Blessedly, God is not distant,

     nor will God be muted.

The Son comes to Bethlehem

     and the tomb is empty in Jerusalem.

Stand up with Him and live in faith with others

     as you are birthed to do.

This is not an issue of guns,

     but a lack of value for the Life God intends,

     a break down of cultural and corporate responsibility,

     one-for-the-other.

Live the Hope.

Embody the Joy.

     Lest all you are left with in life is

     "Run, Hide, Fight".
