Genesis 1-2 The beginning - Genesis, Chapters 1 and 2 - seems to be an appropriate place to begin a blog, a journey through scripture, for anyone who would like to join me.
It is also appropriate to begin here, because this afternoon I will officiate at a wedding at Pt. Abbeye in Aura. The uniting of two people - two becoming one. This is indeed a great and marvelous mystery - one too amazing to fully comprehend.
We celebrate this union today even as we gather in one of the most beautiful (and remote) places of God's creation that I know in the Upper Peninsula. We gather at land's end in Lake Superior waves crashing against the rocks, strong winds swaying the trees, reminding us all of the "Spirit of God hovering over the waters" in the beginning and that the Spirit of God is with us even now.
We celebrate today, the beginning of a marriage - the union of two of God's children - in the beauty of God's creation. We gather in the name of and in the presence of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.
