The Jersey Shore, or Glimpses of the Resurrection

Tagged:  •    •    •    •    •    •    •    •    •  

The shore is a place of Revelation to me. It's a foretaste of what we will know in God's re-creation. Fortresses of sand cross the beach line, their gates always open. They're built with love and laughter. The joy is in the creation.

It's a place where giggles escape.

It's a place of games--paddleball, whiffle ball, football, frisbie, bocce, horseshoes. It's a place where we remember to be child-like.

Pursuit of Happiness

Is it a God-given right as our handy-dandy Declaration of Independence claims?
I struggle with this question.

On the one hand, let's be honest, I pursue it everyday. Who doesn't want to be happy? If you pursue a bad state of being, we call you a masochist and give you happy drugs.
