Jesus – A Thread You Follow

Necessary Things

How I have wrestled with the myth of Christ,
tried to follow the teachings of Jesus
and sought to live along the Way.

And suffering remains,
with the ingredients of fulfillment
still written in a hand that I cannot read.

The necessary things have carried me this far,
far enough to know that I have lived today
and that tomorrow never comes.

Going About Suffering

We know at once 
what a great man 
Jesus was
by the number of questions 
asked of him
while he patiently 
went about 
his suffering.
