Rising from tangled lives

What are you afraid of?

There are some who can tell you right off the bat exactly what it is that provides shivers like ice cycles hanging from a roof. Then there are others who dance around the subject so much they hang on through the dark nights of the soul.

What are you afraid of?

Jesus holds out his hand, stretches his arms toward us, and he asks the question, the question perhaps. "What are you so afraid of?"

Until we can get up from our spiritual falls, until we can rise from our tangled lives, until we can fly again after crash landing emotionally, we are spinning spiritual wheels.

The wheels on the bus go round and round.
