ARMORY

There is an armory in my mind,

with shelves and display cases

of unforgiving scary weapons:

knives, guns, grenades, claw

hammers - even rocks tied to

wooden clubs from way back.

There is another room in my mind

that Jesus talked about only once.

It was in the Sermon on the Mount,

Matthew 6:6. Now if I sit in that

sacred room instead of going into

my armory - then all will be well.
