17-Mar-12: John 3:1-13

 

Now there was a Pharisee named Nicodemus, a leader of the Jews. 2 He came to Jesus by night and said to him, “Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher who has come from God; for no one can do these signs that you do apart from the presence of God.” 3 Jesus answered him, “Very truly, I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God without being born from above.” 4 Nicodemus said to him, “How can anyone be born after having grown old? Can one enter a second time into the mother’s womb and be born?” 5 Jesus answered, “Very truly, I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God without being born of water and Spirit. 6 What is born of the flesh is flesh, and what is born of the Spirit is spirit. 7 Do not be astonished that I said to you, ‘You must be born from above.’ 8 The wind blows where it chooses, and you hear the sound of it, but you do not know where it comes from or where it goes. So it is with everyone who is born of the Spirit.” 9 Nicodemus said to him, “How can these things be?” 10 Jesus answered him, “Are you a teacher of Israel, and yet you do not understand these things?

11 “Very truly, I tell you, we speak of what we know and testify to what we have seen; yet you do not receive our testimony. 12 If I have told you about earthly things and you do not believe, how can you believe if I tell you about heavenly things? 13 No one has ascended into heaven except the one who descended from heaven, the Son of Man.

“Oh, strongsies are ussies, all smoothy-outy now be,” crooned Stumpy and Spottedy and Littley cuzzed.

“Oh, look here, look there, no more cutlings or darklings, nowhere!” shined out Crookeye from bog.

 

“Wait, settle ye here, sit ye there, calm ye hearts and souls, dear critters,” croaked Old Crow.

“Poke out ye ear, stick forth your snout, stretch out yon arm and leg,” advised Ugly Bird.

“Listen, hush, be still, all brothers and sisters in hoof and toe and claw,” whistled Bluesey Fly in blow.

“Know ye not, scan ye not, feel ye not, this balm and this light just tiny speck of yet-to-come Light and Love in Word.”
