Maybe you're tired of my blogging about B.O. Sorry. Tonight I made a connection that has been coagulating in my mind for some time. So often when I hear B.O. talk, I find myself thinking of Jesus and the kingdom and justice and ...
Well tonight, I put my finger on it. B.O. makes us believe redemption is possible. That's hope I guess. We're not too far gone to have better days ahead. We're not so helpless to say nothing can change anyway so why even try.
I'm really tired right now - maybe I can rewrite this later. It just made me think about why I so often cry when I hear him speak. I hope I can convey the Truth of Jesus the way he does - to say redemption is here, the kingdom of God is near, right at hand - it is ours to grasp, Yes We Can - Amen, let it be so.
I'm not eloquent tonight in the least, but maybe you understand me in some gestalt sort of way...
good night.

I'm just cracking up at his initials... just realized it after reading your post. The poor guy. His momma wasn't thinking straight.
HA! Leah, I hadn't even made the connection or realized that I didn't use Barack's name at all in that post - I do find body odor inspiring, but not in the same way!
don't you mean that you find body odor perspiring?
