Lectionary Haiku 23 March 2022

Today’s texts reflect on hidden purposes. The Psalmist yields to divine purpose. What seems, to contemporary sensitivities, preparation for a divinely sanctioned land grab has long-range hidden purpose. Jesus’ parables speak of the hiddenness of the Kingdom of God.

Psalm 39

Your knowledge of me
Is hidden even from me
How can I not trust?

Numbers 13:17-27

Your Godly gift to us
Fecund lands to occupy
Is there reason why?

Luke 13:18-21

Hidden deep inside
Your purpose takes root and grows
Revealing love’s way
