God

P IERRE T EILHARD DE C HARDIN I felt like a plate spinner. You may remember plate spinners from early television variety programs like The Ed Sullivan Show. A plate spinner is an entertainer who balances individual dinner dishes atop dozens of thin, shoulder-high rods mounted into the stage. A brisk spin transforms each plate, for a time, into a gyroscopic top that seems to defy gravity as it balances on its delicate perch. With only one plate whirling around on a single rod, its easy to ensure that centrifugal force keeps that plate in the air.

However, as additional plates are set into motion at ever-widening distances from the performer, the task of making certain that none crashes to the ground becomes increasingly more difficult. As more and more dishes are added, the plate spinner must dash frantically about, shaking each wavering spindle to ensure that its plate remains aloft. At some point, he must either stop adding additional plates or watch helplessly as some are lost. Chances are youve felt like a plate spinner yourself. Every year life seems to hand us more and more plates to add to those weve already got spinning. We discover that not only do we need to keep our own plates spinning but more and more people are depending on us to spin theirs as well.

We find ourselves dashing about in a mad frenzy, trying to keep parts of our lives from crashing to the ground. As a minister, my job is to spin the spiritual plates of my congregation. In the early years at my first church, I noticed that people left Sunday services with their spiritual gyroscopes buzzing! They bounced out of church joyous, hopeful, and feeling a connection with God. The church office was typically quiet Mondays through Wednesdays, but by Thursday and Friday our phones were lighting up with calls from people seeking prayer and guidance. Many Friday afternoons there would be a line of people outside my office awaiting counseling. In call after call and session after session, I found that these wonderful people simply needed an infusion of spiritual confidence.

They needed to know that they were safe, supported, and loved. In short, they needed their plates spun. It seems that spiritual inspiration has a shelf life. A Sunday service may invoke new understandings, instill hope, and offer inspiration, but the bloom of that rose swiftly fades under the onslaught of negativity in our society. As our churchs attendance and influence grew, I noticed that I was becoming exhausted and overworked trying to keep everyones plate spinning. My own plates were wobbling, and as a result, many of those who sought guidance from me were teetering and on the verge of crashing to the ground.

One day, while I plowed through a pile of e-mails, I wondered, Wouldnt it be great if God could send everyone a daily e-mail just to remind them that he is present, that he loves them, that things are going to work out, and that they have everything they need? On impulse, I opened a new message screen and typed, To You; Love, God. I then began to share as succinctly and poetically as I could what I would like to have God say to me in an e-mail if that were possible. Inside, I felt exceedingly arrogant and unworthy of such a task. Who am I to speak for Godeven if Im attempting to make other peoples lives better? Nonetheless, I sent it out to our e-mail database and soon people began to respond. Comments such as these became commonplace: Thank you so much for your daily inspiring words. My friend has been forwarding your most beautiful messages to my e-mail.
