Wednesday of the Fifth Week of Easter
When I bushwhack in the woods, my heightened senses focus on avoiding getting picked off by stray branches. Yet, when I mow my lawn I’m in a different world, constantly getting whipped from growth that reaches out to me, demanding to be cut back. A metaphor is brewing; in faith filled situations I am aware of Christ’s presence replacing deficiencies that I allow but other times I ignore His offer to help. (Reflection on John 15:1-8)
