“Don’t worry about what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive and do that. Because what the world needs are people who have come alive.” Howard Thurman

Happy Easter
With Easter almost here, I am imagining preparing the earth to be pleasing and welcoming for a loving God's return. If we made that our goal rather than profit or domination or personal pleasure, what a beautiful world we would create.
I imagine we would clean up our mess, plant trees and treat the animals kindly.
I imagine we would feed the hungry, clothe the naked and house the homeless.
We would definitely stop bombing and fighting each other with carnal weapons.
And, while we're envisioning this, what if God kept delaying his return day by day, so it was always tomorrow ... and we were on good behavior so long that it became a way of life?
What a wonderful world it would be.
Happy Easter.
