Among the Trees

Among the trees, that is where you
will find humanity.
God created the trees tall & short.

Among the trees and beside the animals, that is where you will find humanity.
God created each animal & bird.

From the dirt, the soil in which the flower and the weed grows, humanity was formed.
God created humanity from the dirt infused with God’s own breath.

Among the tall trees, the fruit bearing trees, and the tree of good & evil, that is where you will find humanity.
God and humanity dwelt together among the trees, birds and livestock.

Come! Let us worship!
We come to worship the very One whose breath creates and sustains us! Amen.

Tim is a runner, a hiker, a devoted husband, a father of two adult children, and their spouses, and a grandfather of four perfect children. A former early childhood educator, Tim is an ordained minister in the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). He has served as pastor of both Disciples and United Church of Christ congregations. As we enter what we hope is the final phase of the pandemic, Tim is beginning a journey of rediscovering himself and discerning next steps. He writes from his home in Albany, Oregon and wherever the Spirit lures him.
