This past weekend, they made a huge mistake.   They called us “weed worshipers”.

Just to make things perfectly clear.  Here, at The Church of Weeds, we don’t worship weeds, we simply appreciate them – and the divine within them.

And we giggle.  Because so many people worship a God, that they don’t appreciate.

“Think about this, in the Old Testament, God called himself, “I am.”    Maybe that means something.   I suspect that it does, in part because when Jesus said, “I am”, they went to STONE HIM to death.”

Now think about this.   Could what I am about to say be taking the Lord’s name in vain?

“I am bored.” “I am a victim.” “I am not worthy.” “I am bad.” “I am no good.”

Think about this…  just for a moment.

You are “created in the image of God”.     And, ”The kingdom of God is within.”

And you dare not appreciate every moment of life you are?

And you dare not appreciate all living things?  You dare to “I am” yourself in a bad way?

My elders taught me that “the spirit moves within all”.   They taught me that what I needed for healing and sustaining the body is always close to me, close to home, and all I needed to do was to learn how to use is, be thankful and appreciate “all that is”.

Do we at the Church of Weeds worship weeds?  Nope.

All we do is appreciate them, and the spirit that moves within all things.

Why not?  It sure beats beating yourself up, taking the name of God in vain!
