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
