Christ Jesus is told, 'Your mother and your brothers are outside.' Christ Jesus
replied, "Who are my mother and my brothers?"
Friends, I'm expecting to sever all communications / ties but those radically
committed to our neediest. Huh? Start, I thought you'd already done that!
First of all, my Love for each and every person is unconditional, especially you all.
But in the face of the unprecedented horrors, dangers, emergencies of the last
few weeks I am more acutely aware of being almost entirely "alone" in putting
body on the line for Our Family - Palestinians,
Gulf Coastians, All Humanity thru the protection of/
standing with Pr. Obama... that I must further dispel the illusions I relentlessly
harbor as to who are "Family" to My Family - almost no one. We are brutally
abandoned. Remember the scripture of Jesus talking about the king that
threw a party, and all the invited guests had to decline - I just got married....
I just bought a house... etc, etc, etc. It is about us. God, the needs of our
suffering brothers and sisters calls out to us but we have excuse, after excuse,
after excuse....
I'm redoubling, I NOW NEED to redouble my attention exclusively on our neediest,
because more evident than ever, it is obvious that even those with whom I
have been blessed to associate, refuse to abandon even a significant amount
of their "stuff," meaningless selfish pursuits, for God, for Our Neediest.
Your Loving, but now much more remote, brother forever, no matter what,
