Death by Gravity

"He doesn't seem to get it, does he?"
He does now. Just a bit slow with the big picture.
Whether a tree falls to the south or to the north,
in the place where it falls, there will it lie.
The law applies in Gethsemane too.
Tragic, but lovely.

For there is nothing unique or peculiar
about the final act of life
that makes it determinative
in validating or nullifying our salvation.

The final season of faith
with all its battles and failures
is not the only season of faith
that will bear witness in the
Last Day that we were born again.
