Scar Detail, July 2010 (Wounded Healer)
The sacrificial instinct is the deep recognition that something always has to die for something bigger to be born. We started with human sacrifice (Abraham and Isaac), we moved to animal sacrifice (the ritual killing of the Passover lamb described in Exodus 12), and we gradually get closer to what really has to be sacrificed—our own beloved ego—as protected and beloved as a little household lamb! We will all find endless disguises and excuses to avoid letting go of what really needs to die. And it is not other humans (firstborn sons of Egyptians), animals (lambs or goats), or even “meat on Friday” that God wants or needs. It is always our false self that has to be let go, which is going to die anyway.
--Richard Rohr, Wondrous Encounters, Scripture for Lent

Enterprize Landing, July 2010 (I Have Set My Face Like Flint)
The Lord GOD has given me the tongue of a teacher, that I may know how to sustain the weary with a word. Morning by morning he wakens--wakens my ear to listen as those who are taught. The Lord GOD has opened my ear, and I was not rebellious, I did not turn backward. The Lord GOD helps me; therefore I have not been disgraced; therefore I have set my face like flint, and I know that I shall not be put to shame; he who vindicates me is near.
Isaiah 50:4-5 & 7-8a

St. Andrew's Cathedral
- I will give thanks to you, O LORD, with my whole heart;
- before the gods I will sing your praise.
- I will bow down toward your holy temple
- and praise your Name, because of your love and faithfulness;
- For you have glorified your Name
- and your word above all things.
- When I called, you answered me;
- you increased my strength within me.
- All the kings of the earth will praise you, O LORD,
- when they have heard the words of your mouth.
- They will sing of the ways of the LORD,
- that great is the glory of the LORD.
- Though the LORD be high, he cares for the lowly;
- he perceives the haughty from afar.
- Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you keep me safe;
- you stretch forth your hand against the fury of my enemies; your right hand shall save me.
- The LORD will make good his purpose for me;
- O LORD, your love endures for ever; do not abandon the works of your hands.
- Palm 138, appointed for July 25, 2010
