Sometimes crying is the only appropriate thing to do -
I think that's why God gave us tears - he knew sometimes
there are just no words to express the way we feel inside.

Logged into my computer and my brother up in Atlanta had just posted this on his status:  

 

 

Wow - This is how I feel today!

I saw this photo on Facebook today
           and I thought to myself - that is exactly how I feel at this time!
Like I'm exploding with love in my heart and it is a beautiful thing.

The Searcher's Prayer - a poem by Ruth Fawell

THE SEARCHER'S PRAYER - by Ruth Fawell

You know well how the search for reality
Goes on throughout our lives,
How truth must always find new language,
New symbols.
Help us while we walk the pilgrim way
Of searching and re-searching
To hold fast to what we know of truth,
To heed the promptings
Of truth and love
In our own hearts
And in the world around us
Which only grow in us
As we obey the given light,
And dwindle as we disobey.

Strengthen us, we pray you,
To live them out
This day and every day,
So that our wills are fortified
By your will,
Our loves
By your love,
And our fragments of truth
By your truth.
