Intercession

A few Christmases ago, Canada post set up a program where kids could write letters to Santa and mail him their lists and confessions and explanations. Tonight, I wish I could email God. I don't need an email back. I just want the ability to write it all out, see it there on my screen and then click that lovely little "send" button. All those words would break apart into pieces as they floated up to God. They would knit themselves together again, into perfectly constructed moans that would breathe out what it is I am trying so hard to say, and unable to find the words for.
