Last night I found myself in what I can only describe as a tohu va-bohu. I don't know why that term came to my mind and I'm not even really sure what it means (neither are any scholars of biblical hebrew). But it just seems to fit. With the way things are going it is like two sparrows flying and fighting around each other not paying attention to what is going on only to run into a big glass window. It might also be described as sitting in a big dark church at midnight only to have two seperate groups of people come from different locations at the same exact time and meet in front of you only turn on the light and leave. God is brooding like a mother hen over my tehom and I'm not sure what is going to surface.
