Holy week rambling

This is called Holy Week
the time between Palm and Easter Sundays
a time of passion
wonder
awe

This is a week of sudden outbursts
gratitude, praise
tears

This is a week of choosing
to believe 
what is impossible
to believe

breath stopping sacrifice
reckless obedience
for you
for me
for all

I am uncertain
have I learned to receive
what I did not deserve
unmerited grace
mad rush of love
have I learned to give
in the same measure

poor in spirit
we are all 
the least of these
