Musings on the Middle East
Live always at the edge of poetic possibilty, even in the face of severe prose. - Walter Bruggemann
From a Thin Place
Journal. Diary. Copious Notes. Musings. Thought. Reflection. Observation. Welcome to A Thin Place. All of this, maybe more, is a record of my year in Jerusalem - the thinest place on earth.
A "thin place", in Celtic tradition,
is someplace, anyplace, where the
spiritual world and the mortal world come so close to one another that you almost see, definitely feel, and maybe even can touch the presence of God. I suspect that my life in Israel will contain moments of clarity just like this. The opaque will become translucent, the hazy clear, and God's presence a reality.
