#SlowBombCoffee and #SeekingJoy Friday! I don't really have words, y'all 😔 the joy seems hard to find right now - for every body with a uterus, for every body that isn't white, for every Queer body, for every Disabled body, for every body that doesn't belong to a cis, staight, white dude - it's rough out here, y'all (speaking from my own trans, white, Queer, body with a uterus) 😔 And. That's the whole point of Seeking Joy - to hold space and honor the Hard things, and also resist the bullshit and Empire that rubs against the Kin-dom - the Kin-dom where all are called Holy, Wholly Good, the Kin-dom where all are deeply loved and known and honored, the Kin-dom that crushes empire and all the death that comes with it - even death can't hold back the Kin-dom (just ask Mary how it felt when the Risen Jesus called her name) - may we all Feel and Know that intimacy with the Divine, in whatever way that manifests for you - for me, it's Jesus gently calling my name, reminding me who and Whose i am, and then sending me to do the work of the Kin-dom. And to that i say, "Please, Lord - send me" 🤲🏾 to all who are Feeling It, to all whose bodies are being policed and traumatized and whose bodily autonomy is being wiped away - and to all those whose lives have been taken from police brutality and white supremacy - take gentle care of yourselves, of your communities, of your spirits - this is not the end 🤲🏾🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ https://www.instagram.com/p/CdOMDivrFUx/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
