Third Wednesday in Lent

"Other seed fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked it, and it yielded no grain." Mark 4:7

believing

we are called 

to weave our

prickly pride and

prejudices into thorny

walls of briars to keep

others as far away as possible,

we never notice you

trying to slowly weave us

into hedgerows of hope

to shelter all of God's creatures.
