A Late-Night Search For The True Jesus

At 12:45, I turned the light on. My wife did not stir. Neither did the cars. All else was quiet, my mind once again drawn to an impossible thought, a question that has been haunting me now for decades, but which I can rarely mutter the courage to utter aloud: Is the Kingdom of God at hand?

Schoonmaker III, of Schoonmaker, George Colin.
