That's all we got.

Come gather 'roun people wherever you roam....--Bob Dylan

 

There has to be a sense of urgency in telling the story. Life is nothing if not a story, many stories, all beginning the same, and all ending the same. The in-between is where we learn to live and die. We are all called to speak our story of our God, He Who became one of us. We are called to speak the story of a God with scars in his hands, side, and feet. We are not supposed to pretend we understand this crazy love He has for our sorry souls, but we are suppose to give it away with the same abandon. We are all storytellers, travelers,  gypsies of a sort. Why? How? Well, this old screwed up beautiful world is a road. Even if you never leave the town you were born in, you don't live there if you were baptized into the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Your life is hidden with Jesus in God. Here is there. We are there. He is here, we are here. And until we die, that's all we got. What a story!
