Notes for the noontide.

Jesus is odd in how much he demands: everything. I know it, but it’s a hard thing to do. No, an impossible thing. But the giving of everything is so much more than a little time and some money; it’s organic and starts from the feet up (or from the mind down). How do you start converting your attitudes? How do you subsume your rebellion? How do you not go crazy?

On that note, I have some financial obligations that have recently ended (between transitioning from TORCR to LWRC, I was giving to some Christian ministries), and I’m starting giving to my actual local church. Well, my actual not-local-at-all church, but let’s not speak of that right now.

I love this verse:

Then I heard what sounded like a great multitude, like the roar of rushing waters and like loud peals of thunder, shouting:

“Hallelujah!
For our Lord God Almighty reigns.
Let us rejoice and be glad
and give him glory!
For the wedding of the Lamb has come,
and his bride has made herself ready.
Fine linen, bright and clean,
was given her to wear.”

Revelation, if you must know.
