a Thicket of palms
Good Morning God,
Yes, yes, I seem to have overdone, again. I am currently sitting in a Profusion of Papers. The papers could be straightened up in a few minutes. Well, picked up and piled.
And, it IS TRUE, they do distract me from my moment with you. But, I am off this morning to a Centering Prayer gathering at Central Union. I am going to SIT in SILENCE and ask YOU to sort out the THICKET of THOUGHTS in my mind . . . and, I hear You point out — in my heart.
The purpose is to make room for You. Set aside Protected Time for YOU.
It is OH so EASY for the Good to Squeeze out the Best . . . to squeeze You out, God.
You say COME UNTO ME, ALL YOU WHO ARE HEAVY LADDEN AND I WILL GIVE YOU REST.
So this morning — at 9:00 a.m. — I am coming. Willing to let the flow of words and thoughts — which I love SO MUCH — recede. To focus, not on the thicket of palms but on the LIGHT that gives them LIFE.
And now, back into Chronos and Timelines and the last bite of scrambled eggs and shower before driving off. THANK YOU, GOD FOR PROTECTED TIMES!
Story teller,
A Moment with God 
Thank you and I happen to be working on timelines around the world today. I will find a moment of quiet
Time lines are messy things in art history.
