Psalm 16

Easter 2 - Year A

Psalm 16

My job is to be protected; your job is to protect.

Kudos to the protector and all those claiming to protect.

As long as I am protected I’ll think and say what will continue the protection, because I am held by that bond.

So far that is working well, pleasantly enough for me, if not for all.

Tell me what I need to do to keep your protection and that check is in the mail.

The path of life is that of protection. In your protection is my joy; in your meting out of protection I find pleasure forever more.

And protection of life is crucial to its continuance.
And protection of life constrains so its continuance lacks growth and meaning.
Blessings on telling one from the other and choosing well in this moment and the next.
