Rebekah Vickery On Quiverfull Theology

No Words by Rebekah Vickeryby Rebekah Vickery (trauma practitioner, writer, friend)I love wordsI have noneTell me, How do you create without a brush?I live, do I? I’m real, am I?I’m living in a middle space There are words, drinks, business, and laughs But also I’m alone Do mirror neurons work when my screen is already flipping the sides of our faces?I look left, but you see me look right I hear words but your mouth has already been moving I think I see a tearBut maybe, it’s just dust Dust on the screen I breathe in, 1 2 3 4So sad, how this act is now tinged with a bit of fear Breathe out, 1 2 3 4 I have no words But old songs slip through the edges of my memory and my fingers remember them on the piano keys This is the air I breathe This is the air breathe Your holy presence living in me Where is your presence in the time of digital space? I have no words But sometimes, old verses slip through the edges of my memory and I cry We see through a glass dimlyHow does Zoom feel so much like an encounter with you? This middle space. Here and not. I have no words, but sometimes I doPosted:  https://www.daniellescastillejo.com/blog/no-words

I’m living in a middle space  There are words, drinks, business, and laughs  But also I’m alone  Do mirror neurons work when my screen is already flipping the sides of our faces? I look left, but you see me look right  I hear words but your mouth has already been moving  I think I see a tear But maybe, it’s just dust  Dust on the screen  I breathe in, 1 2 3 4 So sad, how this act is now tinged with a bit of fear  Breathe out, 1 2 3 4  I have no words  But old songs slip through the edges of my memory and my fingers remember them on the piano keys  This is the air I breathe  This is the air breathe  Your holy presence living in me  Where is your presence in the time of digital space?  I have no words  But sometimes, old verses slip through the edges of my memory and I cry  We see through a glass dimly How does Zoom feel so much like an encounter with you?  This middle space.  Here and not.  I have no words, but sometimes  I do</h3>Posted:  <a href="https://www.daniellescastillejo.com/blog/no-words" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">https://www.daniellescastillejo.com/blog/no-words</a>
