Thus will it be for all who store up treasure for themselves
but are not rich in what matters to God.” (Gospel)

Christ Our Earth |

We are given
moments
of clarity
which give
meaning
to what we do
without
obliterating
the fact
of suffering
which we have
experienced
and know we can
experience
a peace
a joy
a knowing
that
what was begun
will be completed
in us
a desire
a wisdom
a love
in us
over which we
have
no control
but much
control
for this
we thank you
Father
J. Janda
