Salvation by solvation.

Salvation by Solvation
[For Wednesday of Bright Week--Eastern Rite Tradition]

water …
abides abundantly in our human body
and Moses came to the Red Sea
and parted it
walked through it
to save the people of God

like Almighty One
Unknown Source of Life
coming to Mary
and entering her womb
taking residence
to save the people of God

water …
earth’s source of life
God walked mysteriously
in the fiery furnace spinning
dew in an inferno of death
for three youths of God

like Christ our Savior
claiming reborn joy
by lying in a cold grave
and rising, bringing life
by death to people in a tomb
like water …
dissolving agent
God permeates death with life
and man and woman
are saturated with Life’s love
filling with divine presence:

salvation by solvation!
