Well Back to Posting Again

I will try to write here more often now as a kind of existential discipline and practice. This renewal of the covenant coincides with the arrival of a bright new laptop!

What is writing but thinking out loud on "paper," a way to give public "permanence" to fleeting thoughts and sensations. (As such it falls short of prayer).

The World is Incomplete

This world as many experience it of late reveals things as more precarious and provisional, even as "groaning." We see this in the economic order, in the environment, with bodily health, in relationships... In an instant you or I am walking (or lying) in the strange valley of deep darkness. As my friend says, "This is a time when we are anxious for our children." This is a time for crying out from the place where all true prayer begins: from the depths.

God hear our cry!
