In this coming week's reading from Ps. 16, I am caught by the last verse: "You show me the path of life." The rest of the Psalm is heart-warming, given that this the first Sunday after Easter, and our lives should be comforted by the knowledge that we live our lives and are part of the resurrected body of Christ.
But it is that line that sticks out: "you show me the path of life."
As I struggle to watch and participate in the coming-into-existence of the School of the Pilgrim, wondering "what do I do next?" and "where do I turn, right or left?" in raising awareness that life is an ongoing pilgrimage (and part of the mission of the School of the Pilgrim), this Psalm and verse strangely comforts me in an afternoon of anxiety: "You show me the path of life."
Bien camino!
Pilgrim Peace,

When we find the path we begin seeking and in seeking the path finds us as we walk the pilgrim steps and find in our worn feet the slow answers of discovery.
I only speak what I know and know if I speak my knowledge becomes experience pointing to discernment of the pilgrim's way.
Yes.
And Bless.
Together we can.
Only when Love loves.
As all join together well.
As deep as well can flow openly.
In hope hope; in love love; and in
hope filled love peace of Christ...
Ahhhhmmmmmmmmmeeeeeennnnnnnnn.
