O afterwards: A benediction
Christian Century, May 17, 2005 by Jill Alexander Essbaum
O afterwards: A benediction And may the old life, that rotting flesh and treasure find in the good pleasure of Christ, a forgetfulness complete: that these sins, however humanly deliberate my misbehaviors, be blotted from the record of God, raptured like the night's thief, forever gone, newly clean. And may this new self shine like the moon shone, long ago, before she was rent by the devil's incisor, a whole, round body not meant to be broken in phases. And may she sing your praises like Golgotha sings of a tree: for there is nothing empty that cannot be filled. And may the sea and all things swimming it thirst no longer for Living Water. And may the Father know the Daughter, even as the end of the earth unfolds. And may I turn to gold.
