Quote(s) for Today

Christianity is a journey, not a religious system into which all truth can be fitted.

Christian prayer is not an adult letter to Santa Claus

Jay,

You are a Masonic treasure- always full of Light, bright, shining and radiating. Shake those Blues... take it from a new bulb...there is a need for your Wisdom and inspiration.

I dedicate a poem to you:

It's A Whole New Scene

Sometimes when I'm feeling blue
and it seems I just dont know what to do,
I cool myself down and try to put things in order...
I turn myself on and ideas flow like water.
Some I heed and some I don't;
Some I'll need and some I won't.
Some I'll store on my safekeeping shelf
and some I'll turn into Spiritual wealth.
I'll separate the colors and pull out the Blues
and breaking those down will leave me with two-
having broken down the blues into it's yellows and greens
they become the Sun and New Light
and It's A Whole New Scene!

Fraternally,

Michael A Washington
