To the Wonder Page #2
We have C.C.D.
in the parish hall.
We have weddings,
we have parties.
How long will you
hide yourself?
If I would have known
it was there...
Let me come to you.
Let me not pretend.
Everything that's happening...
Pretend to feelings
I don't have.
in the breakdown
of his marriage
the spiritual infidelity
of his people.
In that broken marriage,
we see the pattern of our world.
We wish to live inside
the safety of the laws.
We fear to choose.
Jesus...
insists on choice.
The one thing
he condemns utterly
is avoiding the choice.
To choose is
to commit yourself,
and to commit yourself
is to run the risk--
Is to run the risk
of failure,
the risk of sin,
the risk of betrayal.
But Jesus can deal
with all of those.
Forgiveness
The man who makes
a mistake
can repent.
But the man who hesitates,
who does nothing,
who buries his talent,
in the earth.
With him,
he can do nothing.
My visa has expired.
We need to face the facts.
If you'd asked me to stay,
I would have.
You thought we had forever.
That time didn't exist.
These guys live around here,
I mean,
They're perfectly happy
asking questions,
and it makes everybody nervous...
Ain't this is our property? Can't we
do what we want to do with it?
I tell my husband to get us out of here,
They got all these lawyers,
these big time lawyers,
And we can't get no help.
Even the dog is acting funny.
We've been on this house
for a long time.
You're out at the ranch
up there?
I've been there
for some time.
You told me about her.
I have to look at.
Some of these creeks
and rivers--
The woman you met
at the hospital.
You talk to my sister, right?
Someone you'd known
in your youth.
I'm going over to the...
The ranch is going
into receivership.
It's going bankrupt.
No, he claimed he didn't
want to have kids
While he was in school.
She hadn't changed.
So many student loans,
gambling debts
and this ranch
that's falling apart.
I caught you
on the right day then.
Kind.
I had a child...
a little girl.
She died.
My father...
he said to read romans.
"All things
work together for good."
He believed that.
Will you pray with me?
I had no faith.
You knew.
Were you afraid?
My mother says
I'm chasing moonbeams.
Is that what she said?
I told her I'd rather
Have a moonbeam than
The life I had before.
Do you want this?
Do you know
what you want?
I can't afford...
to make mistakes
with men anymore.
I want you to come
more often.
Can you?
I've been waiting for you.
