Works

Letter to a friend: You have been asked to move on, as if it were a mutual decision. “It’s best for you,” or so they said. Folks tell me not to pick sides but, right now, I’m on your side. I hope mightily that you will find peace among the pieces, hear the voice of God amid the silence. Those works of our hand and our heart, works that bring joy and comfort to the world … or to some small corner of the world … they are entirely of God … God who first called you … God who will call you again.
