Today's reading: Mark 1:9-13
apparently
there's a fine line
between calling
and corruption
how quickly one follows the other
how quickly we
(who don't know what we're up against)
slide from one
to the other
He knew
He saw the Spirit as a dove
He heard the voice of the Heavens
speak of Sonship, and of delight
and He was sent out to wander
(not randomly and willfully
as I so often do)
and He
knew who He would face there
tempted to feast, to impress, to rule,
His sense of Self was worth more
than the enemy's best offers
He instead walked with the beasts
(did they still kneel in his presence?)
and was cared for by the angels
(were they whispering still:
"fear not" and
"gloria"?)
