UNDERNEATH
THE CROSS
Somewhere in the mix and the moments
of our life, we discover from time to time -
things aren’t what they seem to be. We
say things like, “Wait! What just happened
here?” or “Whoa! What’s going on here?”
It’s in that “Wait!” or that “Whoa!” or in
that “Wait a minute!” - we can discover
the underneath - the undercurrent -
the reality of motives different than ours -
and this can lead to understandings.
It can also lead to cynicism and pause,
hesitation and distrust. Hopefully, it can
lead to talking - really talking - to each
other - communication and communion -
instead of one more bloody crucifixion.
