263 - Revelation

May 17, 2002

This year, Reid and I completed a journey on the day before Shavuot. We marked four weeks since his coronary artery bypass graft surgery. To me, this coincidental confluence had to have a deeper meaning. Perhaps as our people realized the new duties they accepted at Sinai, so we, too, have grown to understand the life changes that will provide the guidelines for Reid's renewed health.

Two Hundred Sixty-Three

Revelation

As the Israelite children measured the journey to Sinai,
So have we tallied the distance of recovery;
As You helped them grow into freedom,
So have we learned the bounty of survival.

Accepting the Law, we received the vision of holiness:
Responsibility and honor, burden and joy;
As health returned, we accepted new duties,
Life changes codified to longevity.

Teach us the meaning of Your lessons,
We hear and obey, we cling to new meaning;
Sustain us as we learn right choices,
Decisions that sustain, destiny restructured.
