Disconsolate

How many times,
(how many times!),
have I turned to music

To hear God’s voice
when there was no other way
to know he was near?


I hope this hymn, sung by Roberta Flack and Donny Hathaway, brings consolation and healing to whatever you may be experiencing.

Grace and peace to you…

Words in Black and White

Any words I might offer

Would detract from these

Stuck in my soul

Oozing the cure for not caring enough

Wrapping the wounds

In tight bands of open-eyed hope and mercy


With no further ado, here are the words, words I gathered from James Cone in his book The Cross and the Lynching Tree; words I hope will wound and heal in your soul as they have in mine. Grace and peace to you…
