Sunday 30th June – 13C

LUKE 9:51-62
Foxes have their holes
and birds of the air their nests,
but the Son of Man?

A Samaritan village
did not receive the Teacher
because he was passing –
festival-bent
to Jerusalem:
the wrong sanctuary.

Others, along the way
professed an intent*
to follow.
(*conditions apply)

But the Son of Man
walked, Kingdom of God in mind,
and did not look back.
