Wow...we made it.
Thankful to be alive today. Visited St. James last night to close the year with hopeful melodic charm. Eventhough I could see a blue satin soloist standing there, it seemed as if she was lip syncing a chorus of angels singing to those of us present. Violins carried that enchanting language over us and perhaps beyond the painted glass walls to the city I love. It was important for me to step out of 2004 in a place where Jesus has held me so close and shown me His love in intimate ways.
I shed something there and crawled out into a crisp 2005 night.
I feel ready.

Well, no thoughts of birthing anything. Perhaps a bit more parinoid; wondering if that was some horrible virus on your computer. (smiling snicker)
(BIG SMILE here) Your generous gift now hangs in our living room. Your sharing it adds even more to something I already loved!
Happy New Year and God be with you every step of it's way dear friend!!!!

Hi Celeste,
Wonderful to know that you're one of the bloggers of this web-wide-world... I will absolutely follow your comments with great interest. I share your love for St. James - it's a wonderful church. All the best for the new year! I'm glad that you're ready for it!

Hi india ruby flower.
Posting as anonymous, but you know me as Kermit from the Land of the Rising Sun.
Thinking of you and praying for you. In fact, came across this page nearly instantaneously when I was imput your name. (What an age we live in!)
I really don't know what these past several months have been like for you or what has taken place in your life--I can only make guesses from the two blogs that I just read--but am glad that you spent the last final hours of 2004 basking in the presence of a mighty God.
As I write this, a verse from an Amy Carmichael poem crossed my mind: "In acceptance lieth peace." It may or not speak to you, but it has spoken to my heart many times.
If you know how to reach this frogman, he'd love to hear from you, otherwise, I'll find a way to contact you.
Grace and peace.
