Dust of The Rabbi

May you always be covered by the dust of your rabbi.

May you follow him so closely that the dust his feet kicks up 

is what cakes your clothing and lines your face.

What mattered was not the particular activity.

What mattered was being with your rabbi, whatever.

Dusty Disciples

We can be sitting at Jesus' feet when kneeling in prayer,

negotiating a contract or fixing lunch or watching a movie.

This is the choice Mary made, the one thing that was needful.

Jesus has made God's presence available to anyone who wants it.
