What if we come to find out we are only getting part-time benefits?

Catholic Reading January 11, 2015
Lector’s vantage point before Mass yesterday.

 

We can’t be a Christian on the side.

Part time behavior doesn’t really cut it.

It’s like a marriage. All in.

Commitment.

Remember?

And, yes, of course, it’s hard as hell to do everything we’re supposed to do as responsible adults.

Ain’t nobody immune from that.

Everyone in the pews is irreplaceable in the workplace of service.

Crazy how much God loves us.

Maybe we take it for granted.

What would change and why?

And would the change be significant, medium, or nearly nonexistent?

Didn’t set out for it to become a daily habit, but it’s been one for six years, as the mornings begin with two hours of reading, praying, writing, thinking at a desk facing east, on the second floor, by the big windows.

A desk that for 17 years sat on the opposite side of the same room, facing the wall.

One tiny, single grain of sand at a time.

Hundreds of thousands over the course of a few days.

One after another.

Now replace a tiny, single prayer for each grain of sand. And replace a few days with a few decades.

A mountain of strength?

Simplicity, focus, and persistance.

Who knew?
