Beloved Community

“'The kingdom of heaven is like . . . 'Have you understood all this?'” They answered, “'Yes.'" Matthew 13:44a, 52

you make it 
as simple as 
one of these 6-piece
puzzles for little kids,
but
even that seems
too complicated
as we insist on analyzing,
overcomplicating, theologizing,
turning it upside down 
to see what might be missing,
never noticing you 
rolling your eyes and 
throwing up your hands in
despair.
