Complicated grief

Some days, when it can’t get any worse, it does. Leading to a complicated grief.

This tangled story of deception is not ours alone. 

No. All along the darkening path, we meet others who know. And understand.

Immediately. The word rises off the page. In the Gospel of Mark

Chapter after chapter.

His straight-forward style communicating. Sudden change. Right away.

Truth interrupts

Emptiness grows. In the stained-glass halls of deluded prophets and shepherds. 

Those who speak visions from their own minds. Of their own making. 

Instead of delivering the true and unchanging Word of God. 

Reading Jeremiah, I see this. 

And watch how truth interrupts compromise.
