Writing On the Sand...

William Blake

I was intrigued by William Blake' s painting
 of Jesus writing on the sand. 

Why did Blake chose to depict that? 

Perhaps if I write my judgement I's about someone on sand,

instead of carving them in stone, and use them as a mirror 

to see my self, then I can grow in understanding. 

And if I can see myself honestly. 

If I bring presence into the picture 

and pray for guidance many times, 

I end up in complete awe of the perfection 

of how things work out, 

how the play is there for us 
to be able to see.
