MEDITATION ON PIETY

The word enters my mind. 

I think about it and what it really means. 

Something like humility, honor and

respect for those amongst us. 

Avoiding darkness and sin. 

To be pious is to be Christ-like.

 Jesus roamed the land of Israel. 

He walked almost exclusively and

when he attracted crowds he

may have suffered suffocation

and claustrophobia.  He prevailed

and changed the world.  Today

we are on the upside of our reality. 

There is little true resemblance of order

even in the Vatican where the Pope

follows human instincts rather than

the word of God revealed in the scripture. 

We seem to be believers when it is convenient. 

Otherwise follow the moon, the stars or rivers. 

We are fans but not true followers. 

We must take on the cloak of piety

and follow the truth and be

willing to bear the cross.  Amen
