Day of Pentecost (Year 3, NL)

"When the Counselor comes!" What was Jesus trying to tell us? His words came after an embarrassing incident. When none of us disciples was willing to wash someone else's feet, Jesus did it. Our rabbi and leader. Not until much later would we understand what he was doing; on that night we could only listen and try to make sense of his words.

In the original Christian Pentecost are seeds of a universalist impulse, a catholic principle.

You can’t micromanage a road trip. The wind blows where it wills.
