A Meditation on Salvation


Salvation does not come from blood.
Salvation does not come from martyrdom.
Salvation does not come from sacrifice.
Salvation does not come from death.

Salvation comes from knowing where you came from.
Salvation comes from knowing where you are headed.
Salvation comes from knowing you are more than flesh and blood and impending death.
Salvation comes from knowing you are so much more than you think you are.

  1. Salvation

    A good harvest is salvation: rice
    And tomatoes, garlic cloves
    And broccoli with onion stir
    Fried fresh from the garden.

    However, my real salvation
    Would be to take the leg brace off
    And walk without falling
    Or needing a cane.
