22 July 2018 – Sunday 16B (COCU 48B)

INTERRUPTED AND INTERRUPTING
(Mark 6:30-34, 53-56)
The interruptions
keep coming to Jesus
who welcomes each one.

Listening, tending,
shepherding, healing, teaching,
forgiving, loving.

How do we respond
when an interruption comes
hoping for embrace?

My plan for today:
listening and forgiving,
and yes, more loving.

    And another thought…
What does it feel like
when we’re the interruption
hoping for embrace?
