    Mark 11:  Hosanna!   Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!

    Isaiah 50: I gave my back to those who beat me,  my cheeks to those who plucked my beard;  my face I did not shield  from buffets and spitting.

    Philippians 2:  Rather, he emptied himself,  taking the form of a slave,   coming in human likeness;  and found human in appearance,  he humbled himself,  becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.

    Gethsemane  by Mary Oliver

     

    The grass never sleeps.

    Or the roses.

    Nor does the lily have a secret eye that shuts until morning.

    Jesus said, wait with me. But the disciples slept.

    The cricket has such splendid fringe on its feet,

    and it sings, have you noticed, with its whole body,

    and heaven knows if it ever sleeps.

    Jesus said, wait with me.

    And maybe the stars did, maybe the wind wound itself into a silver tree, and didn't move,

    maybe the lake far away, where once he walked as on a blue pavement, lay still and waited, wild awake.

    Oh the dear bodies, slumped and eye-shut, that could not

    keep that vigil, how they must have wept,

    so utterly human, knowing this too

    must be a part of the story.

    Lord

    May we never take our freedom for granted

    and help us to strive so that this same freedom

    may be experienced by everyone in our country,

    especially the poor and the oppressed,

    and eventually by all humankind.

      Kidnap 1

     

     

    Could this be a case of child kidnapping???

     

     

    True?

     

    Just before the funeral services, the undertaker came up to the very elderly widow and asked,

    "How old was your husband?"

    "98," she replied: "Two years older than me"

    "So you're 96," the undertaker commented.

    She responded, "Hardly worth going home, is it?"

     

     

    Kidnap 2

     

     

    I think so!  Is that a funny man, Atlas?
