These are the texts you may hear in church this morning, folks. There are four today, and that Psalm keeps repeating but adds a little more. Joseph reveals himself as the long-disappeared brother, now well-placed to save his people from famine. Paul wrestles to articulate the duality of the resurrected body and Luke takes us into Jesus’ “Sermon on the Plain.”

How tender it is
Family reconciling –
It carries a boon

Does bad intent win?
Is their shelter for the good?
God provides a shield.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

We ponder well how
To rise is mysterious –
Thoughts of death and life
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Live your precious life
As the good gift graced to you
Much more fulfilling!
