The occasional, often ill-considered thoughts of a Roman Catholic permanent deacon who is ever grateful to God for his existence. Despite the strangeness we encounter in this life, all the suffering we witness and endure, being is good, so good I am sometimes unable to contain my joy. Deo gratias!


Although I am an ordained deacon of the Catholic Church, the opinions expressed in this blog are my personal opinions. In offering these personal opinions I am not acting as a representative of the Church or any Church organization.

God Thinks Us

 Thought into Being


I shave my face.

The stubble there

carries me to 

the scratch of life.


Just simple things:

to touch and taste,

to know I live.

For what? To hope?


Was life my choice?

Unasked, it came,

answered no plan

of mine; but His?


I live, not through

theology.

My senses sense

His will in all.


My life, His thought,

brought to being

as the cosmos

sang its creative hymn of joy.
