Dear All of Us,
There's a
brand new
old fad
kicking around
just now.
We take something
we really like.
We work it.
We don't let it end.
We play it forward.
The "it" here is fiction
- novels, movies,
tv series and such.
We pick up
the story line,
the characters.
We write them forward.
Our favored fictions,
so developed by us,
are posted online
for all to see.
It's called
FAN FICTION
Spirituality is
FAN FACT
We further what we favor.
We do something with it.
We don't let it end.
We play it forward.
We script it in
attitude and action
- our actual, factual living.
What we so script is posted
in plain sight for all to see.
Spirituality
flourishes when
we are life right,
we write right,
true
to
author,
charter and plot.
We are such "fans"
that we live and breath them.
They continue and develop
in our unique telling.
Not to be missed,
so we again
see it, say it
some more.
We are God Fans
Big Time!
God is author,
character and plot.
We are absorbed.
We can't get enough
AND
God writes us
into the story
and the telling.
We are intimately
in on it.
Let's take five
for a few flips.
This is superlative
on steroids!
We are not only fans,
we get to live the story
and to tell it in the living.
We are right there
in the writers' guild
with the prophets, Paul,
and all the rest of the
earlier story tellers.
Like them
we experience the story
and can't keep it to ourselves.
We tell it in terms unique to us:
our personality, gifts, graces,
talents, location and culture,
even hang ups and short comings.
We do so enthused and joyous.
And sad to see and say
there are contrary storylines
being pushed public.
There are a lousy lot of narratives
flooding media, political parties,
economics, education,
phony-fraud religiosity,
these turbulent, troubling times.
They are seeping into
psyche, soul,
action and reaction.
They are getting institutionalized
in movements, political parties,
even laws and libraries.
They are lethal forever chemicals
poisoning our social - spiritual flow.
We so need
FAN FACT
people in love with
The Good Story
The God Story
God Glad Fans
living a narrative
fresh, full
real and right
alive and enlivening
freeing society
from theses
horror stories,
these negative narratives.
Most of our telling
is not in words.
We write large
in the living.
Just going to church,
not stealing or
committing adultery,
don't cut it.
Our society
needs people
fired up in
God Love,
co-authoring
new, vigorous chapters
in
THE GOOD NEWS
So we not only test
God Positive
We publish
God Positive.
We are a
FAN IN FACT
