Pastor's Ponderings
He Is Risen
A few years ago in New Orleans they televised a musical presentation of the life, death and resurrection of Jesus. In that musical the Risen Christ sings a Katy Perry song: Unconditionally. It is one of the songs on my Easter Playlist that I listen to during my reflection and prayer time walks in the woods. When I imagine this sung by Jesus I hear his recognition of my humanness, including my flaws and failures, and his love for me as I am and as I am becoming. Here are the lyrics I hear Christ singing to all of us hoping that the deepest parts of us, shadows and all, will hear his love.
“Unconditional, unconditionally
I will love you unconditionally
There is no fear now
Let go and just be free
I will love you unconditionally
Come just as you are to me
Don't need apologies
Know that you are worthy
I'll take your bad days with your good
Walk through the storm, I would
I do it all because I love you
I love you
Unconditional, unconditionally”.
See you in Church!
