Sunday funnies

I was reminded in church this morning that we are a people who believe in healing.  I believe in healing.  It seems I believe it more for others.  The word came through a person I do not admire.  Of course it did.  And this evening it came through the Sunday funnies.  Of course it did.  It seems I need to learn this in stages.  It seems I need multiple lessons in grace.  It seems I need the whole grace curriculum.

I am in the blue chair again.

I reflect on helping to save the woolly bears yesterday.

Jeff is grading.

Sawyer is homeworking

If that is even a word.

I pick up the Sunday funnies.

I realize I can read them a little better

Than last week*s funnies.

I close my right eye and yes

My left eye is a little better,

Just a little better but still

Better.

It seems appropriate somehow

That I would notice

Through the Sunday funnies.

I think about the blind man

Jesus healed in stages.

First he saw trees walking

Then the whole picture emerged.

Of course it would come to me

Through the Sunday funnies:

Color pictures in the comics.

I want to knock on wood.

I want to wear my sunglasses.

I want to hold my breath.

Trees walking.

Right.

I want to know if there was something in particular

I was to learn.

I want to know if it will stay

If I have learned it.

I want to know if it will stay

If I haven*t.
