Stones and a builder
I remember one of the things I first learned when I began public speaking. It is something I did my best to drill into my public speaking students when I taught it myself. Don’t begin a talk/speech/toast/whatever with an apology. However, this isn’t any of those things, not even the “whatever.”
Please accept my apologies for the delay in getting this post from Words From the Middle out so late. For those of you who expect it to the point you blame your computer when it doesn’t arrive . . . the problem is/was not with your computer but rather with mine. I have had a couple of days wrestling with my computer to make it behave and I’m still not sure I’ve won.
But on to the purpose of the post. As I reflected on the texts for this week, I kept coming back to the image of “stone(s)” and the notion of building. I wanted to bring the “living stones” in Peter together with the builder preparing a place for us in John. I am looking forward to hearing how close I got. As always, let me know what you think as you are inclined and able.
Blessings,
