It's 6:30 and I'm the first one up. There is a warmth in the air as from an approaching summer day despite the thermometer's reading of 64 degrees. I'm used to rural setting and waking up before everyone else so this morning is comforting. I had dreams of dignity and responsibility, and I see that is what today is to be. It is the day when everyone arrives but we have not yet spiritually arrived. It is the day when everyone arrives but we have not yet formed our community bonds yet. It is the day when we are pumped up with the responsibility of right relation but not truly feeling the group trust. We are tied to our own homes and not to our present moment. We enter the present moment today and we form our bonds of trust and love. We all become a living Christ to each other as we build each other up. The practice of Christ's life made manifest in us all.
p.s. It takes a (soon-to-be) pastor to wonder how many people will be able to do textual criticism and determine the different authors or sets of authors for each post. I'm a dork.

Dear friends, I pray every blessing upon you, as you learn to open yourselves fully to your own truths and to God's.
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God, and the sweet communion of the Spirit of Spirits be with you all.
