(Traducido por Carlos Enrique Espinosa)

Ven Tú, Fuente de toda bendición,
sintoniza mi corazón para cantar tu alabanza.
Incesantes corrientes de misericordia
convocan cantos de la alabanza más fuerte.

¹You foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you? Before your very eyes Jesus Christ was clearly portrayed as crucified. ²I would like to learn just one thing from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, or by believing what you heard? ³Are you so foolish? After beginning by means of the Spirit, are you now trying to finish by means of the flesh?^]4Have you experienced^]so much in vain—if it really was in vain?

Mientras escribo, un agujero en el fondo del Golfo de México está vertiendo millones de litros de petróleo, que amenazan con destruir los animales, el sustento y la ecología de al menos cuatro estados de los EE.UU. La destrucción está más allá de mi imaginación más fértil. Las escenas de sufrimiento rompen mi corazón. Sin embargo, mientras estas viñetas de Louisiana corren a través de mi mente, pienso que este desastre empalidece en comparación con la devastación causada en el Jardín del Edén.

Even as I type, a blasted hole in the floor of the Gulf of Mexico is pouring out millions of gallons of oil, threatening to destroy the animals, livelihood, and ecology of at least four U.S. states. The destruction is beyond my rather fertile imagination. The scenes of the suffering break my heart. However, even as vignettes from Louisiana pour through my mind, I am reminded that this disaster pales in comparison to the devastation wreaked in the Garden of Eden.
