Mtt. 11: 28-30 (message version)

“Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.”

Theology is the refusal to disbelieve. It insists that water runs downhill because it loves running downhill. That birds sing to each other because they cannot stop laughing. That apples fall downward because the world is magical. This is the world into which theology invites us to come and play, to eat and be satisfied.”
— Inhabitio Dei

The Alpinist’s Alphabet

Oh, it’s a mystery to me
We have a greed with which we have agreed
And you think you have to want more than you need
Until you have it all you won’t be free

Society, you’re a crazy breed
Hope you’re not lonely without me…

When you want more than you have
You think you need…
And when you think more than you want
Your thoughts begin to bleed
I think I need to find a bigger place
Because when you have more than you think
You need more space

Hold your devil by his spoke and spin him to the ground.
