This was in the grass on my front lawn this morning. I never thought that I lived among people who thought this way.
 Jesus’ statement “If any one of you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at her” is found in John 8:7. Jesus was teaching in the temple when the scribes and Pharisees brought to Him a woman who had been caught in the act of adultery, and they asked Him if she should be stoned as required by the Law of Moses. However, they cared nothing about this woman; they were using her to trap Jesus. In their minds, if He told them to set the woman free, they could claim He did not hold to the Law of Moses. If He told them to stone her, they could claim He was not the Savior; and, if He said nothing, they could claim He lacked wisdom. Jesus did not answer immediately but stooped and wrote something on the ground, and they kept pressing Him. Finally, the Lord said, in essence, “Go ahead and stone her because that is what the Law requires. But the Law also requires that the first stone be thrown by a person who is sinless in connection with this charge” (John 8:6–7).

I was looking for one of my all-time favorite poems, “the truth”, by Randall Jarrell .
I always feel an exquisite connection to things when I read it out loud to myself. I remember one of my teachers, Marvin Bell, may he rest in peace, who was the first to read it to me . But today I found a different poem by Jarrell. I think it is much more famous than “the truth”, maybe even as famous as “the death of the ball turret gunner”. It is wonderful in both large and small ways, “ The woman at the Washington zoo “, and you can find it here if you are curious and you would like to read it : https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/48391/the-woman-at-the-washington-zoo.
Blessings and kindness to your day.
