Making notes in my morning journal about this wonderful piece. Thank you.
I used to rankle when preachers/teachers would mock Peter for wanting to build the shelters, saying he was always too impulsive, too arrogant, too mouthy. Well now I can see that these preachers and teachers likely didn't understand what Jesus was trying to convey either. We, unlike Peter, have had the benefit of 2,000 years to try to figure scenarios like these in scripture and we often still don't get it right. I so appreciate your insightful words.
Even when obscured,
“sources of light... sustain us.”
Aligned, we too shine.

Beautifully said. So often we confuse the pointer with that which is being pointed out. This piece makes it all too clear.
Thank you, Rev.Trimble.
