The Sweet Return (9)

WWYD?


Jesus,
You know I like ABC's What Would You Do? I like it especially when there's a string of passive people then along comes a fierce one who 'can't stands it no more.' I believe in those moments you are proud of the race of men.

I also like the show, Lord, because I feel that's really the question; not WWJD? but WWYD? You've already done you, already revealed to us in gospel snapshots what your life on this earth looked like. I understand the generalities, the themes...I get it, Lord. But I believe you're asking me this day: what will you, John, the almost 44-yr-old man/husband/father/son who lives out west but grew up in the south...what will you do, knowing what you think you know about me and my consuming fierce love...WWYD?

I pray you'll be proud of me, of us, this day.
Amen.

  3. No plans to come, but you never know about us. We love Colorado and the Blase family.

  4. You're lucky, John. You can wear the WWJD gear but just insert "John" in the J-spot! Total win for you...

    "The person who trusts me will not only do what I'm doing but even greater things, because I, on my way to the Father, am giving you the same work to do that I've been doing. You can count on it."—the Message, Jn 14:12
