THE GOOD WORD ACCORDING TO · THE ULTRA-HARRIER

The CursitudesThe wave and the rock
Chapter 60
And still I know that many of you are unconvinced,
2And that you will wrinkle up your face at me and say,
3o“But he never promised that life would be easy,
4p“Or that we would receive our rewards on this earth,
5“And you must have faith,
6a“Because truth is beyond understanding.”
7Isn’t that how that part of the spiel goes?
8But I say to you, how would you respond to a real estate developer who told you to hand over all your worldly possessions for an acre of land in bheaven,
9Which you will never get to see until you die,
10Let alone build a house on it,
11Or raise your family in it,
12Or earn a living from it?
13You would sting him up to the nearest tree,
14cUnless there was a cross available,
15And… isn’t that a coincidence?
