Time 3

Take Time,
God’s Faith Offering -- 
We can only empty

Returning with us
hopefully less than
how we entered 

Having learned something 
of love's greater value
when the trumpet sounds 
and that dude in a cloak
does his Campy Dark Dance….

Who knows, Joe? -- like to think mine is, a little Blueberry Hill and Take Five. Shades of music has always been my heart. Still play drums. But all my mates have died off. Short Christmas Card List now. Oh well. Near the last set for this tour. Blessings my friend.

My first commandment and last -- the others would not be needed if those 2 dutifully, soulfully carried out. I remember speaking once to a Priest-type acquaintance who told me, Do you really think God needs you to advice or help with His creation? My thought, guess he had nothing better to do that day when he made man.... So few really understand the bible, and the nature of being. God lives, breathes, feels with and through His creation (including us) -- Free Will allows us to separate from Him consciously...but it is an illusion. True separation is impossible. All existence is made of God Substance (His Body). Nothing exists outside of God. He is form and all being. In Him knowledge of all Good and Evil...We pick and choose, Law the redeemer. Grace and Love the patience. Love the reason -- when in harmony, balance...there is only love. God. Just my opinion.

Thank you, Anne; I just changed that line a little bit, you got it, but I thought I would be a little less poetic and more clear. Blessings my friend.
