Lightening Never Strike’s Twice
That’s what people say ?
Lightening never strikes twice
Lightening never strikes twice
It hits once and moves on
Wind cuts sharp through the silence
Water crashes, then pulls back
Earth doesn’t bend or break
It waits and holds its ground
No second chance, no repeats
Elements don’t make mistakes
Storms rage hard and leave scars
Skies crack open, then close tight
Rivers carve through stone like knives
Nothing soft, nothing polite
Roots dig deep beneath cold stone
Silence louder than any shout
Power shown in what’s held back
Not in noise or empty doubt
Once gone, they vanish
No echo left behind
Their mark remains alone
Silent, sharp, and blind

Regarding the Image of God
This post will be a bit of a strange one. I wrote most of the following piece about six months ago, as certain governmental policies and actions were starting to roll out - and while reflecting upon certain ongoing atrocities. While these reflections revolve mostly around those claiming and practicing the Christian faith (and our failures to do so rightly) I do believe that they might be provide valuable insight - or at least something to think about - for folks of all perspectives who are willing to read them. So without further ado, here are a few of my recent reflections regarding the biblical concept of the 'image of God.'
